Streaming Directly From Xbox To Twitch Now Possible
Twitch streamers rejoice! You can now stream on Twitch directly from your Xbox, as revealed by Microsoft on their official Xbox website.
Accessing Twitch directly from the Xbox can now be done in just a few steps. Here’s how you can do it:
- Link your Twitch account to your Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One console.
- You can do this by either scanning the QR code with an iOS or Android mobile device or navigating to the URL with either your PC or mobile device.
- Navigate to the “Capture and Share” tab on the guide and select “Live streaming.”
- Select the “Go live now” button to instantly go live and start live streaming games with your Xbox.
Additionally, players who follow streamers on Xbox can opt to receive notifications once the said streamer goes live.
This announcement just came a mere two years after Microsoft shut down Mixer. Prior to its closure, Mixer was touted as Twitch’s biggest rival as the platform signed Twitch’s two biggest streamers in Richard Tyler “Ninja” Blevins and Michael “Shroud” Grzesiek.
