Starting this week, the 4K capability will finally come to the YouTube app on Xbox One. This is about time because Microsoft launched the 4K capable Xbox One S in August 2016. Google’s video streaming service did not get 4K support through that launch. At least it is now arriving and will be available on both the Xbox One S and Xbox One X this week. With the updated applications, YouTube videos will play in 4K resolution and at 60 frames per second. This is a welcome addition, but the YouTube app is still some gaps in features. For example, HDR content is still not available on the app. The app is being rolled out now, so you can head to the Microsoft Store to get it.
