XBOX: Smartphone hit Threes coming to Xbox One

iOS and Android hit Threes is getting an Xbox One release.

The hit puzzler is a natural fit for smartphones, so the arrival on Xbox One is certainly a surprise – albeit a very welcome one.

The game sees players group matching tiles to form multiples of the number three. Some have dubbed it the modern Tetris – as in it’s intuitive, but hard to master.

There isn’t a release date for the game yet, although it has been confirmed as being part of the ID@Xbox indie development program.
