The update should make streaming to Twitch from Xbox much easier.
Streaming to Twitch on the PS5 is relatively easy, but not so much on the Xbox Series X or S. Currently, you need to download the Twitch app and run through a series of steps in order to stream to the platform. However, Microsoft will introduce “Console Live Streaming” on its latest update Xbox Insider preview. This should make Twitch access easier and more direct, and it also added an Xbox Cloud Gaming beta to Xbox One, giving users of older consoles access to the latest games.
To use the new Twitch streaming feature, you’ll just need to navigate the “Capture and Share” tab and choose “Live streaming.” You can simply link your Twitch account using a mobile device or console settings, as you’ve done when linking socials before, then hit the “Go live now” button to start streaming gameplay.
“This feature only streams game play so viewers will see a pause screen if the user navigates to home or another app,” Microsoft clarified in the post. There’s no need to worry about any privacy issues in that regard.
If you’re still on an Xbox One and want to play Xbox Series X/S titles or more hardware intensive games, the Xbox Cloud Gaming beta is also available to Insiders. Want to play an Xbox Series X/S exclusive like Microsoft Flight Simulator on an Xbox One? It’s now feasible if you’re on the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring, launching today at 10 PM in the UK.
As for us regular Xbox gamers, though, we will have to wait a little while.
