Unfortunately, it's been revealed that this feature is being limited to Xbox Live Gold members. ORIGINAL STORY: One of the Xbox One's most highly touted features is the ability to record gameplay videos and upload them to your friends on Xbox Live. As revealed yesterday, you will need to be a paid-up Xbox Live Gold subscriber to access the system's Game DVR feature. The decision contrasts with Microsoft's choice for Xbox One.
Sony's Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida confirmed the news to PlayStation fans via Twitter last night (as spotted by Game Informer). There are many contributing factors to the shortage, but the end result is frustrating for everyone involved.UPDATE: Sony has said that you won't need a PlayStation Plus subscription to use the PlayStation 4's game-recording function. For now, at least the button to open it can be remapped to something more useful if players decide to use it less because of this.ĭespite the lacking Game DVR function, the Xbox Series X and S are still highly sought after and are having trouble keeping up with demand the ongoing semiconductor shortage is causing console manufacturers to make unexpected decisions to mitigate the supply problems. However, until Microsoft officially confirms what is happening the removal will just appear to users as a senseless change.
Despite its usefulness Game DVR is far from perfect, and some form of overhaul to fix its performance and stability issues could be coming up. There are several reasons why direct Twitter sharing could be removed for now nothing is confirmed, but it could theoretically be the first sign of an overhaul to Game DVR.
