So you finally decided to buy an Xbox One after the system dropped the Kinect and $100 bucks off the price? Now, you wonder what life would be like if you had all those cool extra features. Well have no fear, the Xbox One Kinect sensor will soon be available for standalone purchase. This October, Microsoft is releasing the Kinect, just in time for Dance Central: Spotlight.
The officalial Xbox.com blog, Xbox Wire, is reporting on the upcoming Kinect standalone sensor:
”Since we announced the availability of a new Xbox One console option for $399, we have been excited by the response from fans. While we’ve seen our Xbox One sales double since the new Xbox One option became available, we have also seen increased demand for Xbox One with Kinect. When we announced the new Xbox One option, we also shared that we would deliver a standalone Kinect sensor for people that chose to purchase the sensor at a later date. We’ve always believed in the magic Kinect brings to Xbox One and today we’re excited to confirm that, beginning in October 7, fans will be able to purchase a standalone Kinect sensor for Xbox One. The standalone Kinect sensor comes with Dance Central Spotlight, the latest in the dance series from developer Harmonix, which will be available as a digital download and features a soundtrack of 10 hot tracks. Kinect with Dance Central Spotlight will be available at retailers for $149.99.”
The Xbox Wire blog goes on to highlight some of the Kinect’s features, adding:
“Xbox One is better with Kinect, making games, TV and entertainment come alive with premium experiences. The Kinect experience includes voice and gesture controls, biometric sign-in, instant personalization, instant scanning of QR codes, and enhanced features only available with Kinect in games such as Kinect Sports Rivals, Dead Rising 3, Project Spark, and more. We believe Xbox One is better with Kinect, offering unlimited possibilities, and we’re seeing our fans use Kinect for Xbox One every day, with billions of voice commands since launch.“
