Is Microsoft building a Xbox mobile store?

Microsoft is apparently working on a Xbox branded games store for mobile devices. The details were unearthed from a filing that the Redmond technology giant made to the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which is investigating the proposed Activision Blizzard acquisition.

Microsoft first proposed the acquisition earlier this year, and has since been subject to various investigations that seek to understand if the deal would be determent to competitors like Sony.

As reported by The Verge, Microsoft said in the filling, "The transaction will improve Microsoft’s ability to create a next generation game store which operates across a range of devices, including mobile as a result of the addition of Activision Blizzard’s content."

It said that it wanted to build, "on Activision Blizzard's existing communities of gamers," and the Xbox brand, "will scale the store to mobile" which would attract new gamers to the "Xbox mobile platform".
