Microsoft has announced what apps will be available when the Xbox One launches.

Offering more entertainment options has always been important to Xbox fans. For years, we’ve been working with leading entertainment brands and TV providers to offer our customers a wide variety of live and on-demand entertainment. Today we unveiled the complete Xbox One experience – showcasing how Xbox One delivers the best games and multiplayer features, along with your favorite movies, music, sports and live TV experiences – all in one place.

“We set out to make Xbox One the all-in-one games and entertainment hub for your home. The one system that offers the best games next to the best entertainment experiences and apps,” said Marc Whitten, Xbox Chief Product Officer. “Along with offering a stellar app portfolio from around the world, Xbox One takes the next step by offering them in a way that is seamless and easy to use.”

In addition to delivering live TV in every market where Xbox One will be sold, we are also bringing premium, voice and gesture controlled TV and entertainment apps specifically designed for your living room. These apps have been built from the ground up uniquely for Xbox One and are designed to harness the power of the all-in-one platform. For example, Xbox One is empowering partners to bring media achievements and exclusive Snap experiences, as well as many other things to entertainment apps, offering everybody the opportunity to achieve badges or rewards for the media they consume in addition to gaming.

Something truly unique we’re doing with Xbox One is bringing together your favorite TV channels and entertainment app channels into one screen. Xbox One is also the only games and entertainment system that enables HDMI pass through. You can create your own personal Favorites in OneGuide – the Xbox One electronic program guide – so you can quickly and easily choose what you want to watch, whether it’s a TV channel like CBS, NBC or ESPN, or something inside an app like Xbox Video, Hulu Plus or the NFL on Xbox One. You can even add your personal photos and videos from the SkyDrive app to your OneGuide Favorites.

Additionally, a Bing search for TV, movies, games, or music scans across all apps to find exactly what you’re looking for, instead of having to hunt through each app individually. For the first time, you don’t have to juggle multiple screens across cable TV, video streaming services and other entertainment apps to quickly find the entertainment you’re looking for.

Today, we’re announcing the very first wave of some of the world’s biggest names in entertainment rolling out on Xbox One in the 13 launch markets between Nov. 22 at launch and spring 2014:

Does it mean if I am in (insert nation), I cannot access apps design for other markets? Would be nice if possible.
 
Hmmm...No sky or BBC for UK ?
How can you launch without an app that have weather reporting in U.K . I will be pissed when I missed report of a rare warm Sunny day in England that is coming soon. :p

I would assume so, since ( insert nation) not having having it is most likely down to licensing issues.
 
Ya. But then again, I can access (motsly) apps from other places on my ios. BBC, CNN, Mailonline, to name a few. No issues.

OK, apps like TV channel I can understand, but would be nice others apps that doen's have licencing issues can be view by all.
 
Looks slick, no doubt. MS has got the software side down.
Still don't want the advertising spy camera though.
I wonder if the voice commands work through the headset.
If not, I'd just use the controller.

You can deactivate the camera, by using a device call tape. They come in varies form, names & pricing, but all do the job nevertheless.

No NHL GameCenter??? Mega fail fvck. Good thing I went with PS4 first which has it. Unacceptable!!
 
Hmm, no Xfinity?

And no HBO Go at launch?

The PS4 doesn't have them either, but for something billed as the center of your living room/an All in One device, that sucks.

Guess I'll keep my Xbox 360 plugged in.
 
As long as HBO GO is up and running by the time Game of Thrones starts, I'm good. Then again, I have my 360 for that.
 
So is Skype not considered an app or am I just missing it?
 
Ah. These eyes just aren't what they used to be!
 
How do I snap a game if i'm already playing a game?
You can't, but I believe you can snap apps with out playing a game, so technically games can be included in the count of things that can be snapped.
 
I beleive that penello said once that games will not be able to be on the thin side of the snap
Really? I thought I saw a video a little while back where a guy was playing KI and had IE up at the same time and he made KI small and IE took up the majority of the screen.

Yeah and then when Penello was talking about that clip (it was the demo reel with the stock TF footage in it i Think) and said that in final release the game will not be able to shrink.
