Here's how you stream Xbox One games on Windows 10

4.6
Microsoft has made much ado about Windows 10's support for streaming Xbox One games to your PC, but how do you actually do it? There's a good chance that you can figure it out if you're reading this, but Microsoft has helpfully posted a full walkthrough in case you or your friends need some help. The gist? You'll need both an Xbox One controller and an Xbox Live account, of course, but you'll also need to make sure that the Xbox One is set to allow game streaming in the first place. We could see that easily becoming a stumbling block if you're rushing to get started. The guide is also a friendly reminder of what you can do once everything is working, such as voice chat (with a microphone) and controlling the Xbox One's menus. It's simple enough... let's just hope that PC-to-Xbox streaming isn't any more complex.

djreaper11 Do you need a good graphics card to stream on PC?


No don't think so, you're still playing on the XB1.

Will definitely use this when I get round to streaming

I think it's mostly internet connection in this case because the hardware being used for rendering and such is still the XB1.

SuperHeroes seems alright hope theres no major latency lag

I expect it to be some lag in the beginning because it is going to be new etc.
But hopefully there will not be any major issues, and that they will fix things as fast as possible.


I have zero lag issues, just quality. Router is at the other end of the house, and my PC is using ethernet, it's over 75 ft of walls, so there are some quality issues, but, surprisingly, not too much lag. It's very polished and I think they had a great launch.
