Microsoft Insider update Makes Twitch Access Easier, More Direct On Xbox Consoles

Microsoft has introduced "Console Live Streaming" on its latest update Xbox Insider preview, making Twitch access easier and more direct. It also gave users of older consoles access to the latest games by adding an Xbox Cloud Gaming beta to Xbox One

Microsoft noted that users will need to navigate the "Capture and Share" tab and choose "Live streaming," to activate the new Twitch streaming feature. Link your Twitch account using a mobile device or console settings, then hit the "Go live now" button to start streaming gameplay. "This feature only streams gameplay so viewers will see a pause screen if the user navigates to home or another app."

The Xbox Cloud Gaming beta is also available to Insiders who are still on an Xbox One and want to play Xbox Series X/S titles or more hardware-intensive games.

Also, new features that enable gamers to play an Xbox Series X/S exclusive like Microsoft Flight Simulator or The Medium on an Xbox One is feasible for gamers on the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring, launched on Tuesday at 5 PM EST.
