UWP remove "exit-full screen" in Control Box

Is there a way to remove the "Exit-Fullscreen" button in UWP apps?

I know it is possible, as one app "4 pics 1 word" has done it. Below is a screenshot:

As you can see, there are only 2 buttons in the control box: Minimize and Close.

However, for other apps, there is another button that appears:

There are 3 buttons, Minimize, Close, and a new one, exit Full-Screen.

For resolution concerns, I would like my app to always be Full-Screen and not allow any option to exit full-screen. Alt-tab is okay.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you

Currently there is no managed API to modify the control box of a titlebar in UWP apps other than the Fullscreen option you illustrated.

The reason the game you presented has a modified control box is because it's NOT a UWP application: if you check it's System Requirements in the Store it states that the minimum OS version is Windows 8 or higher required.
