Arrival of Apple Music on Xbox

While Apple Music has been available on PlayStation 5 for a year, Xbox users had to wait almost two years into the Xbox Series X/S lifecycle for the app. However, Apple TV has been accessible on Xbox consoles since the Series X/S debut in 2020. The timing of Apple Music’s arrival on Xbox coincides with Microsoft’s upcoming Surface event, hinting at potential Xbox-related news at the showcase.
