The computer giant may employ the popular mobile titles Candy Crush Saga and Call of Duty: Mobile, which are made by Activision and King, respectively, to create a gaming store.

According to the article, the corporation will need to hire outside developers if it wants this plan to be successful.
The company appears to be laying the groundwork for developers to autonomously administer their own app stores on its Xbox mobile platform and provide their own payment mechanisms for managing in-game transactions by subscribing to a set of criteria. A feature like that is something Apple does not offer.
