Microsoft Xbox Series X, S disables game emulation
India TV NewsMicrosoft has reportedly restricted its users from running game emulations on the existing Xbox Series X and Series S. As per the reports of PCMag, it is possible for users to play classic GameCube games and PlayStation 2 on Xbox consoles, rather than a longstanding ban on game emulation. In response to the crackdown, a legal emulator called gamr13 tweeted: "For the past 2 years we've promoted legal emulation on a popular platform that people have genuinely enjoyed. Meanwhile, Microsoft has stopped its Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscription platforms, which allowed users to try the service for $1 for the first month before upgrading to more expensive plans. The trial was available for years but wasn't always available in some markets, and it appears Microsoft is now considering new promotions for new Game Pass members, The Verge reported.
