ABC News app now available on Xbox One

ABC News announced earlier this week the arrival of its app now available for Xbox One, becoming the first news app on Microsoft’s latest console. For the Oscars tomorrow, the ABC News app will show clips, fashion trends, interviews and live video.

Users of the app will also be able to watch sections with content from other Disney properties such as Fusion (the TV network in conjunction with Univision) and Marvel, as well as content from ABC affiliates from Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, San Francisco and a few other cities.

“The app for Xbox One is a major step forward in our efforts to develop new creative forms of storytelling and put ABC News everywhere people get their news and information,” said Colby Smith, ABC News Vice President of Digital. “The ability to choose from multiple live streams, especially during breaking news and special events, will provide an unparalleled viewing experience for the audience.”
