Bottles als Linux-Alternative zu Xbox App

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

Bottles is not a direct replacement for the Xbox App because it does not handle Xbox Live accounts, cloud gaming, or achievement syncing. It is a compatibility layer manager that runs Windows executables. It works well for users who own standalone PC games (e.g., from Steam or GOG) and want to run them on Linux. If your library is strictly tied to the Microsoft Store or Xbox Game Pass, Bottles cannot access that ecosystem. It is a solid tool for running specific Windows game files, but it lacks the account and storefront integration of the native Xbox client.

Was gleich funktioniert

  • Both allow launching Windows-based game executables
  • Both manage game installations on the local system
  • Both provide a graphical interface for organizing software
  • Both support running games that rely on DirectX or other Windows APIs

Was anders ist

  • Bottles cannot sign in to Xbox Live or manage Microsoft accounts
  • Bottles has no access to the Microsoft Store or Xbox Game Pass
  • Bottles does not sync achievements or profiles to Xbox servers
  • Bottles requires manual installation of game files rather than automatic downloads
  • Bottles relies on Wine/Proton emulation, which may have performance overhead

Ihre Xbox App-Dateien öffnen

Bottles does not open or export Xbox App-specific files such as license keys or store metadata. It works with standard Windows executable files (.exe) and installer packages (.msi, .exe). If you have purchased games through the Microsoft Store, you cannot simply copy the files to Linux and run them in Bottles because they are encrypted and tied to your Microsoft account. You must own standalone copies of the games to run them in Bottles.
