Twitch is finally coming to Xbox One: The date to mark is March 11, the same day when Titanfall will be released.
When the app drops several days from now, players can shout "Xbox, broadcast" to immediately begin live streaming. To stop, they need only utter "Xbox, stop broadcast" or "Stop broadcast." Button commands are also available in lieu of these voice commands.
Aside from broadcasting heavy metal actions, Twitch updated viewing on the gen console and players will be notified when their friends are already broadcasting.
A user can view one's live stream and can opt to leave a message or chat. They can also check the broadcaster's profile, send a request, follow them or join the game.
Streaming
When Twitch was integrated to the PS4, the live streaming propelled to 1 million users. Since having the capability to live stream, the Twitch broadcasters of PS4 increased from 100,000 to 200,000 in just a matter of months.
Xbox owners, meanwhile, have been patiently waiting for the broadcast capability to live broadcast their games.
