PC Gaming Preview Release Notes - Xbox App [2405.1000.44.0] & Game Bar for Windows...

I am using Windows 10 and am on the latest release.

I am playing on PC.

And I have the Xbox App, Console Companion App, Game Bar, etc.

Understood, thanks for the update @ArmaanSood. I hope they publish the details once released in a release note post here so we know it has been fixed - https://news.xbox.com/en-us/recent-news/?_categories=xbox-app-preview .

I'm currently on these versions for reference:

2311.1000.56.0 (Internal)

16.83.3001.0 (Gaming Services)
6.123.11012.0 (Game Bar)

Hi,

You can create and join parties on Windows 10 just like on Xbox. You can do this using the

Windows 10 Game Bar. The people you are playing with can still chat to you using Game Bar even if they are on an Xbox One console.

Something to note:

If your controller is connected to your PC via Bluetooth you'll need to connect a microphone to your mic port on your PC. Chat via a microphone on an Xbox One controller is only available via USB or an Xbox One Gaming Receiver.

Hi,

You can change your online Status on PC via the Game Bar. Press and hold the Windows Key and
tap G on the keyboard.

Or with an Xbox controller attached to the PC, access the Game Bar by pressing the
Xbox button.

Depending on how the Game Bar is set up on the PC a number of Windows will be displayed. Showing as Online or Offline is available in the Xbox Social window. To configure the game bar to your liking, press the Overlay Menu, next
to the time. This will allow you to change what Windows of the Game Bar are displayed.
