E3 2019 has ended and there are a few things that grabbed our attention. But we shall cover all the aspects so you don't have to sit through the 1.5-hour briefing and find everything you need to know right here. With over 60 games in the lineup, a new controller, Xbox Pass for PC, among others, it was pretty exciting, to say the least.The event started off with the world premiere trailer of "Bleeding Edge". The third person action combat from Ninja Theory can be experienced both from an Xbox one and Windows 10 PC. It will be available through the Xbox Play Anywhere. Then came Ori and the Will of the Wisps followed by Minecraft Dungeons. What's even more exciting is the later will be available on Xbox One, Windows 10 PC, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation. OK, maybe I am overhyping it a little, but it's easy to get lost into all this. So, let's take a breather and get through this one by one.
Xbox Game Pass for PC
The Xbox Game pass for PC beta can be downloaded through the Xbox app on your Windows 10 PC. You will need an applicable device linked to your Microsoft account, but that's about it.
