Patent allows you to verify physical games to add to the digital library – Nerd4.life

Microsoft has Patented System Validation of physical games Which will also allow holders Xbox S to add them to their digital library. It would also likely be useful for future consoles of the Redmond House, in the absence of optical readers at all.

As can be seen from the image, the new patent allows third-party gamers to authenticate Xbox game discs, allowing players to access digital versions from their console. Currently, this is a system that will benefit above all Xbox Series S owners, but in the future who knows.

Microsoft has invested heavily in Services In recent years, especially those related to the preservation of old titles. It’s hard to say when this new technology will be available to the public, but we hope it will be available soon.

Who knows if the system will also apply some control technology, which prevents you from retrieving one game copy twice, and selecting the source disk. According to the patent description, the Xbox One can somehow be connected to the Xbox Series S and can be used as an external player for authentication. It’s like saying nothing is left at Microsoft, with generations handed over.
