Xbox One doesn't support 3D Blu-rays

Playback won't be supported for launch, though Microsoft is open to adding the feature down the road.

by Eddie Makuch

 

The Xbox One will not support 3D Blu-ray playback, at least not at launch, a Microsoft representative has confirmed with GameSpot sister site CNET.

However, it is possible that 3D Blu-ray playback could be added in the future, the representative said. The Xbox One is Microsoft's first console to feature a built-in Blu-ray player.

Meanwhile, the PlayStation 3 supports 3D games and 3D Blu-ray movies. As CNET points out, the PS4 will support the playback of 3D games, though none will be available at launch. The official PS4 FAQ makes no mention at all of support for the playback of 3D movies.

The Xbox One launches next Friday, November 22, for $500. GameSpot will have more coverage of the next-generation console leading up to release.

Edit: Since this is still being discussed, the poll should have read:

Moving towards being a multi-media device, would it have made more sense for the Xbox One to support 3D playback out of the box given that more and more newer HDTVs and Blu-Rays are offering 3D options?

Huh? Is this a real thing? You can do no multimedia stuff on PS4? I know I read you can't use it as a media server anymore.

Yup, its a real thing, and no it doesn't have DLNA streaming yet



This is a dup thread...

Either way, I am surprised about it all the same.



It is near the end of the end....

But honestly if you care that much about 3D blu-rays then you might already have something that plays them. I'm sure there will be an update for it



Can PS4 do Blu-ray 3D out of the box? and there was already a thread on this.
