"Xbox Game Pass Expands with New Titles and Exclusive Deals"

Riot Games partnered with Microsoft to bring their biggest games to Xbox Game Pass, and the behind-the-scenes work was handled by the Player Platform team. This team focused on creating a connected player experience, handling everything related to Riot games that is not directly gameplay. They collaborated with Microsoft to overcome challenges and ensure a smooth onboarding experience for players. The UX design played a crucial role in planning player interactions, and the team worked on integrating platforms, creating near real-time services, and addressing database limitations. Soft skills and a player-centric mindset were also key to the success of the partnership.
