Windows 10 is launches tomorrow (our early impressions), and it’s going to bring a bunch of Xbox gaming features to Microsoft’s biggest product.

The Xbox app in Windows 10 is about to unleash a plethora of new gaming capabilities for PC players. These include GameDVR, cross-device play, and streaming of Xbox One games to a local PC or Windows 10 tablet.
