Microsoft’s Larry Hryb revealed earlier today on Twitter that recorded Xbox game clips would soon be given unique URLs that would allow them to be shared more easily with people who don’t use the Xbox apps nor own an Xbox One or Xbox Series X console.

A more social experience will also be launching alongside this added functionality that will make it easier to browse and discover clips.

“Link sharing and trending content are coming soon to the Xbox mobile app, letting you share links to your game clips and see the top trending content from other Xbox gamers,” Hyrb said in atweet. “This is currently being tested in the app and will soon be rolling out to all users!”

From the images shared, it looks as if the Xbox apps, at least on iPhone and Android, will fully embrace the social media aspects of the Xbox service with a feed that resembles that of Instagram and TikTok.

“Trending content will be spotlighted in the Xbox app, where you will be able to watch, like, comment, and share posts of other users’ game clips,” Hyrb also shared.

The Xbox apps have been testing this kind of feature for a few months now but it’s beenlimited to video games and developers.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
