Xbox One direct Twitch streaming still a few months away

4.5
When is Twitch direct broadcast coming to Xbox One? Not for a good few months yet, the service has warned.

In a tweet, Twitch said it’s still waiting on Microsoft.

“There is no ETA at this time from Microsoft. Expect a few more months. If we know sooner, we’ll update,” a representative said.

Meanwhile, native Twitch streaming on PlayStation 4 has become hugely popular, to the discomfort of detractors of Sony’s focus on easy socialisation.

The Xbox One does have its own native video sharing service, which allows users to edit videos and upload them to Xbox Live.

I can't believe they have taken so long to get Twitch on the Xbox. It seems like it would be simple enough if the software is already in place to record the Xbox, all you have to do is be able to turn that into a stream-able source. It seems like a mulit-billion company like Microsoft could figure something like that out.

I think (pretty sure) the reason Sony got it working straight away is the PS4 has a built in chip dedicated to twitch. Where as the Xbox one will use software (like app snapping but without the snap I hope)

I am rather shocked that Twitch streaming is still so far away for Xbox One users, I feel that it should have been ironed out and available at the console's release, or at least by the start of 2014. Hopefully there won't be any technical issues with the feature when released or I am sure it will cause considerable problems among those who stream on a regular basis.
