If you’re a gamer, you may want to start streaming your gameplay on the Xbox One or Series X. Streaming can be a fun way to share your gaming experiences with others and potentially even make some money. In this guide, we’ll show you how to stream on Xbox One and Series X using Twitch. We’ll also go over some tips for becoming a successful streamer. Let’s get started!

How to Stream on Xbox One/Series X (Twitch Guide)

Step 1: What You’ll Need

To be able to stream your Xbox gameplay on twitch, you’ll need a few things:

• A stable internet connection
• An Xbox One/Series X console and controller
• A screen or monitor to display gameplay
• The Twitch app

Those are just the basics. If you’re committing to streaming full time, you might also want to invest in a microphone and camera. The camera will make your streams more interactive.

Step 2: Setting Up a Twitch Account

1. Go to the Twitch website on your web browser
2. Sign up for an account using your email or phone number
3. Go to ‘Moderation and Safety’ settings
4. Customize them to suit your needs
5. On your Xbox, download and install the app from the Xbox store
6. From the ‘My games & apps’ menu, start up the Twitch app
7. Login to your account on the Xbox
8. The first time you log in, the app will give you a 6-digit code
9. Enter the code in the Twitch activation webpage on your web browser

You can create your Twitch account on your Xbox, but you can’t access all the settings. To get the best experience, customize your settings on a browser before you stream. Using a web browser makes it much easier to personalize your channel and make it stand out. It’s also a good idea to download the Twitch app on your phone, to make quick changes on the go.

Step 3: Streaming

After you’ve linked your Twitch account to your Xbox, you can start streaming.

1. In the Twitch application, click the ‘Broadcast’ tab
2. It’ll prompt you to customize the broadcast settings
3. Select ‘Start Streaming’
4. Go back to ‘My games & app’
5. Choose the game you want to stream

Now anyone viewing your Twitch channel can see your screen. However, only your gameplay will appear to the viewers. If you switch the screen away from your game, your viewers will see a video loop of the game. To end the broadcast, all you have to do is go back to the Twitch app, then select ‘Stop Streaming.’

Wrapping Up

Streaming your Xbox can be a lot of fun, and it’s really easy to set up. All you’ll need is your Xbox console and a twitch account. It takes a few steps to complete the setup. Make sure you don’t skip any customization steps. They may take a while, but they’ll make the streaming experience much easier. Whether you’re doing it for fun, or money, streaming your gameplay is a great way to socialize.
