Xbox One Upload Studio lets you share your gameplay vids, live streams through Twitch

Sharing clips of your gameplay has become quite a popular past time. Microsoft is streamlining the process on the Xbox One with Upload Studio, a dedicated tool for editing, theming and sharing videos of you blasting baddies and beating up your friends. Though a lot of the details are still a mystery, we can tell you that it uses the system’s “game DVR” which automatically records your gaming sessions. And, if you’d prefer to live stream your Forza runs, Twitch is built-in for broadcasting your race to the world.
