The companies will dismiss all patent cases, including those related to Google's former Motorola Mobility smartphone unit but did not disclose if money was involved as part of the agreement.

Google's former Motorola Mobility unit had been demanding royalties on the Xbox video-gaming system, and Microsoft had sought to block Motorola mobile phones from using certain features.

They will in addition lobby for specific rules on a unified patent system throughout Europe.
