Update: Xbox head Phil Spencer has clarified via Twitter that the change was made because certain “unique” games may not release on both Xbox and PC, but that the intent to “bring our franchises” to both platforms remains unchanged.

Original: During Microsoft’s E3 conference they unveiled “Xbox Play Anywhere” as part of their continued efforts to bridge the gap between the PC and Xbox markets. With Xbox Play Anywhere, you can buy a game digitally on the Xbox Store and play it on both your Xbox One and your Windows 10 devices, sharing save data between them.

Microsoft recently stated in a blog post that “every new title published from Microsoft Studios will support Xbox Play Anywhere,” but it looks like that may have been an incorrect statement. The blog has since been updated, and that line now reads “Every new title published from Microsoft Studios that we showed onstage at E3 this year will support Xbox Play Anywhere.”

@pcgamer Just clarifying could be unique game not right for all devices. Intent to bring our franchises to Win10 & XB1 is unchanged. — Phil Spencer (@XboxP3) July 7, 2016
