On many platforms when you purchase a game digitally you then have the option to gift it to a friend, and now Microsoft's Mike Ybarra has responded to a question asking about when we can see this feature coming to Xbox.

Twitter user Stefan K asked: "how far off are we from getting the ability to GIFT a new purchase for a friend?", to which Ybarra responded: "Not far!".

This is good news no doubt, but two words doesn't give us much detail, so we'll have to wait for more information on this. Is this a feature you've been missing?
