Microsoft’s Build 2016 developers event didn’t provide as much information on upcoming Universal Windows Apps as some Windows fans might have liked. In fact, while a number of sessions did deal with developing such apps, there was a relative dearth of specifics on apps that might be upcoming.

However, Xbox One users did get a bit of information on some upcoming apps that will be making it to Microsoft’s console via the Universal Windows Platform:

Xbox partners such as Nickelodeon, Dailymotion, NASCAR and Hulu LLC announced plans to bring Windows 10 Universal Windows apps to Xbox One later this year.

That’s not a huge list, but it shows that at least some major developers are taking the Xbox One seriously as a Windows 10 device. We’re sure we’ll hear much more about this and everything Windows 10 as the Anniversary Update approaches this summer.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
