Xbox One video shows off Kinect facial scanning

4.7
Microsoft has released a new video to show off how well the new Xbox One Kinect can scan and build a virtual representation of your face.

Kinect Sports Rivals will utilise the feature to create playable avatars that closely resemble the player.

Kinect Sports Rivals is a Kinect-controlled bundle of sports events including soccer, climbing, wake racing, bowling, target shooting, tennis and more.

The game was initially slated to be among the list of Xbox One launch games this November, but will now release during Spring 2014, or Autumn in Australia, following a delay in July.

According to Microsoft the delay will allow Rare to further polish the Kinect title, which is the studio's first release for Xbox One.

This isn't staying plugged into my console, but I do want to mess around with it and maybe actually use it later on. The face scan was pretty good for a cartoonish character. So, I am guessing those are what the new avatars look like?

Boar I have always loved Kinect from the start, brilliant bit of kit.


I used to enjoy it. Seeing friends on 'Video Kinect'
But slowly I went off it. I was looking forward to it,
until you reminded me about the Skype feature..

Infanting I'd prefer not to have to Kinect. I've never liked it since
I got it with my 360..


Well to be honest others don't like it also, although I am liking it a lot more now with the Skype feature.


I forgot about that feature! So really, it'll fit in well!

Whats good about this is that everybody has kinect as it come with every xbox one.
So devs for games like battlefield will have a reason to add kinect features in there games instead of having games for people with kinect like the dance one or whatever.
