While PC digital distributors have long since offered a game-gifting option for their users, game consoles haven’t really had that option – until now. We’ve learned that Microsoft is planning a game-gifting option for Xbox One users.
The news comes via Xbox VP Mike Ybarra, who responded to a fan inquiring about the feature on Twitter. His response was a simple “Not far!” when asked how far off the ability to gift a game to a friend would be.
Nintendo offers this option via the eShop Store website, however Sony currently doesn’t offer this on their PlayStation Store website or app within various PlayStation devices.
