Microsoft weren’t just doing wishful thinking when it said it wanted more third-party app stores in the Windows 11 portal. The edge Notes that new Microsoft Store policies now allow third-party storefront apps. And no, Amazon’s Appstore isn’t the only partner getting on board – the Epic Games Store is coming to the Microsoft Store in the “next few months” as well. As promised, Microsoft will not require revenue sharing from these stores.
The company’s relaxed policies on competing browsers (which now allow browsers with non-Microsoft engines) are also paying off. Opera and Yandex Browser arrive on the Microsoft Store to offer an alternative to Edge. These additions won’t help much if your first impulse is to download Chrome or Firefox, but they do suggest that Microsoft is open to at least some competition in its own store.
