After Microsoft and Asus released the portable device ROG Xbox Ally, the Play Anywhere concept has become even more important for Microsoft. Previously, it was more of a nice bonus to get games purchased for both PC and Xbox, but now that they have a portable PC-based Xbox device and a new Xbox on the way that is rumored to be built on the same premises, Play Anywhere is becoming a must.
That's why more and more games now support this, not just Microsoft's own but also from third parties. The latest to join the ranks is Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater, as noted by Xbox insider Klobrille on Bluesky. This means that if you have purchased (or are planning to purchase) this remake for PC via the Microsoft Store or Xbox, you can now move your game between formats with the same save files and profiles.
