Xbox One: an update to the Alpha Ring introduces the co-streaming on linking mixers

If you're in the Alpha Ring of Xbox One Preview program , please be advised that tonight was released a new update (1706.170526-2218) that introduces some interesting features.

The first is to activate the possibility of co-live with another player on Mixer: If we have a friend in the party and launch a broadcast on Mixer, we will have the opportunity to invite another player to transmit its gameplay, which will appear in our Channel Mixer next to ours. This is very useful for multiplayer or co-op, allowing viewers to see the action from the perspective of both players. In the future this feature should be expanded to 4 players.

Another very interesting feature is the Linking Controllers , namely the ability to tie our user profile to a specific controller. Whenever we will light the controller, the console will ask us about us but we will go automatically to the preset profile. If you already have the console in automatic access this there will of course, but very useful if more people back home to play, each with his personal controller.

Added to this is also the view of our email address in your profile and the home console, as well as various bug fixes. If you are part of the Alpha Ring you can then begin to test the new features!
