Battlefield 4 for Xbox One supports Kinect head tracking for leaning


The Xbox One port of Battlefield 4 may have a resolution of 720p, but that version of EA's military shooter will have a couple of extra features that no other will have, thanks to the Xbox One's Kinect sensor. EA has confirmed that players will be able to use their head in the game with the additional Kinect support.

What does that mean? Well, according to Polygon, Battlefield 4 on the Xbox one will allow players to track their head movements when the Kinect sensor is used. This mean gamers will be able to lean and peek around corners in the game world just by moving their heads. The article says this will make a big difference in terms of gameplay as gamers will be able to expose just part of their virtual body when they are in corners.

In addition, Battlefield 4 for the Xbox One will be able to accept voice commands from players, again thanks to the Kinect hardware. Gamers will be able to request ammo, call a medic and more with their voice. Battlefield 4 is one of the 21 planned launch games for the Xbox One, which officially goes on sale on November 22nd.
