We've shared news from the Twitter account Aggiornamenti Lumia on many occasions in the past, as they're a well-known Microsoft Store leaker with a great track record, and they recently shared an interesting new discovery.
Basically, they've found a new Xbox app hidden away on the Microsoft Store described as "unnamed project". It seems it isn't actually that "secret" based on their comments, but it's unknown what the purpose of the app will be:
As you can imagine, everyone's been giving their opinion on Twitter about what they think the app might be for, with some suggesting it could be Game DVR related. Aggiornamenti Lumia has advised it has "no idea" right now.
So, who knows! It's fun to speculate though, so let us know what you think the app will turn out to be...
Any guesses? Tell us in the comments!

Honestly the first thing I think of when I see that image is a screen shot.
I would love it if it was a proper backwards compatibility app
Don't get me wrong the BC Program is awesome but there are SO many OG XBOX and 360 missing from it
Not every games needs to be upscaled like in the BCP and a simple emulator app that lest us run any XBOX and 360 game would be fine
Although maybe i just want that as now both my PS3 and 360 are dead and i have games from that gen i would love to replay
And i know i could buy another but this is the 3rd PS3 and 5th 360 to die on me and i don't want to waste anymore money (oddly no issues with any other old system just that gen 🤔)
@FullbringIchigo The 360 and PS3 are terrible quality necause of a change of regulations regarding components that could be used in electronics, and manufacturers scrambled to replace them, and didn't really test or understand the failings.
My 360E has done very well, but about 75% of its library I play on Xbone, so that saves it some stress. My PS3 slim died a month or two back, and I wish the PS5 had something similar to the BCP, because I'm just fearing the day my super slim dies and I have three dead PS3s in the house.
@Agnostic Please let this be true 🤣
It's an app to order peanuts🥜
The image makes me think that it’s a slideshow app for the Xbox. Maybe you could load your own photos into it for them to appear when the system is idle?
There's no way you can find unlisted items unless someone on the inside feeds you tips, or they're breeching security.
I'm not gonna blithely accuse of the latter, but it sounds like Mr. So and So Great Track Record on Twitter has an insider tipper. That tipper is the actual leaker.
Actually walk back my earlier comment. This is actually PlayStation Spartacus launching on Xbox.
@awp69 if not xbox then for sure it's spartacus app for pc.
@FullbringIchigo the issue isn't upgrades it's licensing. Allot of the games companies published no longer have the licenses needed. It could be music, the engine... Anything...
Microsoft isn't going to make something BC unless they can also sell it in the store.
@FullbringIchigo The OG Xbox emulator ran on the 360 hardware which is emulated properly by the Series X so this should be possible.
