Xbox One group chat can now hold 12 in the party
Getting in and out of a Party Chat xbox one to talk to all your friends will no longer be a problem, because today Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb, director of programming for Xbox LIVE, announced via his blog that henceforth all users will have support for 12 people in chat groups.
“On this day everyone on Xbox and Xbox One App in Windows 10 you will have access to 12 people in Party Chat” wrote Major Nelson. “After more than 2,200 votes in the Feedback Xbox, we are expanding the group chat to include 12 people.”
For this new feature will not be necessary to receive an update, since everything is done server side.
Moreover, those who are part of New Xbox One Preview experience will receive new updates during the day. These improvements are for the voice chat and text, unification of the Game and Upload DVR application, including the Xbox avatar in some areas, a new menu shortcuts for common shares and new shares of the Xbox Guide.
