Xbox One is getting a Twitch app to coincide with the launch of Respawn Entertainment’s upcoming first-person shooter, Titanfall, Microsoft announced this morning.

The app will allow Xbox One owners to live stream games, launch streams using voice commands, chat with players you follow, join a broadcaster’s game, and view Twitch streams being broadcast from any other device as well.

The Xbox One’s Kinect sensor will be integrated with the Twitch app. A voice command saying “Xbox, Broadcast” will launch the app, while Kinect will allow you to include a picture-in-picture video feed, alongside audio commentary.

Previously, Xbox One owners could only record game footage and upload it using the system’s Upload app.

The Twitch app for Xbox One will be available on March 11th, which is also the date that Titanfall launches. You can learn more about the app here.
