The current Xbox One preview program rolled out game gifting, which allows purchasing games on Xbox Live to send them to other accounts.
The news comes from the Xbox One subreddit, where user liamcurtis1718 simply posted the title "game gifting is here" with a picture of Titanfall 2 Ultimate Edition including a "Buy as a gift" option.
For whatever reason, gifting on consoles has only ever appeared on the Wii, but disappeared in later Nintendo shops, having never appeared on PSN and Xbox Live. Steam has had gifting as a fundamental part of its storefront, but changed its policy recently to make gifting only possible at the point of purchase for VAC-enabled games.
Xbox corporate vice president Mike Ybarra announced the feature in vague terms on Twitter last July, but this is the first indication that it is coming anytime soon. It is a welcome feature and hopefully Nintendo and Sony also follow suit.
