The Google Play Store already shows games for use on Windows, not just Android

Windows 11 was presented with the great novelty of having support for running Android applications, good news, but with the nuance that not all Google Play content will be available for the Microsoft operating system. This integration was announced a few months ago and is starting to materialize now: Google Play already shows content available for Windows that you can download to your PC.

Google Play already shows its integration with Windows

The Android app store has a bright future ahead With the arrival of Windows compatibility, and as Xataka Android discovered, it would seem that there are already games in the app store that can be downloaded to play on Windows.

One of these games is Lineage2M, which in its file gives the possibility of downloading under Windows. If you press this button, it will download an emulator called Purple compatible with this game and install it on your computer.

These types of “local games”, as Google called them, are installed on your PC, but they will not be the only ones available in the store, since there will be other ways to play them on the computer.

Some use an emulator and others opt for a traditional installation using an EXE file.

For now, we’ll have to see how this integration progresses, since we have to download an emulator seems like a pretty crude method of bringing games to Windows 11, and at the moment this system does not have Google services to be able to run applications. Microsoft seems to have more news up its sleeve for us to see soon, so it’s only a matter of time to hear more about this interesting integration between the two operating systems.
