Microsoft has begun rolling out its Xbox Full Screen Experience (FSE) to the MSI Claw, a gaming handheld device. The FSE is a console-like navigation experience designed for Windows PC gaming, and it allows users to access their games from an interface similar to that of an Xbox console.
The FSE was previously introduced on the Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X devices in early October, but many users reported issues with these models. Microsoft has now released a preview version of the FSE for the MSI Claw, which is part of the latest Windows 11 Insider Preview Build.
To access the FSE on an MSI Claw device, users need to follow these steps: go to Settings > Gaming > Full screen experience and select Xbox as their home app. Once enabled, users can access the FSE from Task View or Game Bar, and they can also configure their handheld to enter full screen experience mode on startup.
Microsoft notes that additional OEMs will be enabling their handheld devices to use the Xbox FSE "in the coming months." Lenovo's Legion Go 2 is already set to receive this feature next year.
It's worth noting that users are advised to wait until some of the problems associated with the original FSE have been resolved before installing it on their MSI Claw.

its like having an xbox on the go, but not as expensive lol. i was a bit skeptical at first since i heard there were some issues with the original fse on other devices, but ms released this preview version for the msi claw and its working pretty smoothly for me so far 
. the interface is super intuitive and i love how i can access all my pc games from it without having to switch between apps. i'm also loving the fact that i can configure it to enter fse mode automatically on startup, its like having a mini xbox in my pocket 
I mean, imagine playing your favorite PC games on a handheld device that's actually console-like 
. Like, what if it doesn't work smoothly on the Claw? Or what if it's just not worth the hassle? 
! And hey, if I encounter any issues, I can always wait for some updates or patches before installing. That way, I know it'll be smooth sailing.
! This is getting exciting, folks! 
! I'm low-key hyped about this FSE thingy on my MSI Claw - like, who wouldn't want a console-like interface for gaming on the go? but seriously, the fact that they're addressing issues from the original FSE on other devices is a big deal. it's cool to see them improve the experience before making it widely available 
i'm also excited to see more OEMs like Lenovo jumping on this bandwagon - can you imagine playing Fortnite on a Legion Go 2? 
gotta wait till some of those issues get sorted out, though... don't wanna be stuck with a broken gaming handheld 
just imagine playing ur fave games on a proper console 
like the new FSE is a game changer 4 handhelds tho, can u even play ur games in full screen mode w/ these tiny devices? it's all about the immersion man 
.
I'm hyped for anyone who gets to try out the xbox full screen experience on their msi claw! but gotta keep in mind those early issues with the ally and ally x devices 
hopefully they've ironed out all the kinks now. it's crazy to think about how far gaming has come, from being stuck at home playing console games to having a portable device that can give you that same experience 
i've been playing on my xbox ally and it was so cool to have that same feel on the go! 
why do ms need to keep trying with new devices tho? can someone explain me how the full screen experience works on a laptop or something? 
.
they need to iron out those problems before making it available to more people. The MSI Claw seems like a good starting point, though - its smaller form factor could make for a really unique gaming experience. 
... does that sound weird to anyone else?
... so yeah, maybe we should wait a bit longer to see if they've ironed out all the kinks 
... or maybe this is exactly what handheld gaming needs - a console-like experience on the go! 
. Lenovo's Legion Go 2 can't come soon enough, tho! 
. Microsoft is taking gaming to a whole new level with this console-like navigation experience, and I'm all about it 
. Plus, who wouldn't want an Xbox vibe on a handheld device? It's like having your cake and eating it too... or should I say, playing games and having a console-like experience at the same time
