We already know the Xbox One needs its Kinect sensor to be operational, but what happens if the fancy new motion tracking camera malfunctions or gets damaged? Can you walk into a store and buy a replacement, or do you need to send it in to Microsoft for repairs?
Joe 'Three Sheets' Neate (Executive Producer): "As I’m sure you can imagine, when it comes to Sea of Thieves my days are full of numbers. Development costs, active servers, days until the next update… Sometimes, though, a truly extraordinary number stands out – a number like 40 million, which I’m incredibly pleased to say is the number of pirates who’ve now set sail in Sea of Thieves!"
Garrr... more people to walk the plank and send to Davey Jones locker.
would have been funny to release this on talk like a pirate day.
Epic milestone!
After 6 years and 40 Million players, the people on N4G who called DOA on SoT must be feeling pretty stupid right now.
Especially considering that *right now* Sea of Thieves is leading Playstation Store´s pre-order charts ahead of the freaking Stellar Blade. O.o

Congratulations to everyone at RARE and Team Xbox
Devstream 178 was filled with so many cool announcements for the game's community, and were able to ask a lot of questions about Warframe: 1999 and more!
From The Growing Stones and Valkyrie Interactive comes The Mildew Children on Xbox and PC. Ready for the fairy tales and horror it brings?
Typical corporate speak. They should start talking to their customers about this stuff instead of holing up.
Microsoft won't even answer. That's hilarious. They don't have anything to share on what happens if your mandatory camera breaks.
LOL. How much more arrogant can you get?
Great question. Meh answer. Let's just hope it never comes to that
I think one fundamental shift happened from Xbox 360 and Xbox One that most are not seeming to understand. With the Xbox 360 Kinect was / is / always will be a peripheral that you could buy seperately. Its an add-on and wasn't part of the system. With Xbox One and Kinect 2.0 it is and always will be part of the system. Just like a disc drive in Xbox One, Kinect 2.0 is hardware for the system. They designed it all to work together. Given you can turn off all the features of Kinect through privacy settings really the system just needs to know its plugged in from what I can tell. If Kinect 2.0 isn't working its like your disc drive failing. Some functionality of the system still probably works but its limited in what it can do.
Whoever discovered Kinect need to be kicked in the head by Tony Jaa.
