Posted By | On 16th, Oct. 2013


Microsoft has released a new video for the Xbox One, outlining its various features which include Kinect, SmartGlass and Cloud computing. It specifically outlines how all of these features mean the machine is built for the future and features community representative Graeme Boyd and director of product planning Albert Penello. Check it out above.

Many other features, such as the Cloud’s ability to store your save data and Achievements for instant access anywhere and dedicated servers, have been detailed. Interestingly, Penello outlines how this could technically make any Xbox One in the world belong to you, but we think that has more to do with the same information you can access anywhere rather than any actual ownership. Features such as the much-talked about Snapping, which lets you concurrently run two to three apps at once, and DVR recording are also discussed among others.

The Xbox One will launch on November 22nd across 13 territories. Do you believe it’s built for the future? Let us know below.
