Windows 10 Xbox Game DVR ‘Design Goal’ Is To Work With All Games
At this morning’s Windows 10 briefing, Microsoft showed off a number of functions of the Xbox app. Among them is the ability to use Game DVR, just like on the Xbox One.
We inquired about whether every game will be supported. “Our design goal is that it works with all games,” a Microsoft representative told us. “There may be technical limitations as we work through the development process.”
Additionally, you’ll be able to do whatever you want with the clips, including uploading them and sharing them as you would on Xbox One. “Game DVR records your game clips as local video files on the hard drive,” the representative told us. “You can then upload the video anywhere you choose.”
Our Take
While the goal is that Game DVR will work with all games, it’s best to moderate your expectations until Windows 10 is released. Until then, we can hope that Microsoft is successful it getting it operational with as many titles as possible.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
