GoPro channel coming to Xbox 360 and Xbox One later this year

It’s no secret that Microsoft has been pushing hard to get video content onto the Xbox One, and there will soon be a new channel. A GoPro channel will launch on the Xbox 360 this spring, with an Xbox One version following up this summer. A representative tells The Verge that the channel will be similar to the one it launched on Virgin America flights in the US this past October, and is being made as part of a partnership with Microsoft. It will include videos all created by GoPro itself — the channel will not include user-generated content, at least at first. In addition to the channel, there’ll be a prominent section where you’ll be able to buy a GoPro camera or other accessories and mount directly from your Xbox. Purchases will go directly through Microsoft’s Xbox Live marketplace.
