Microsoft's Project Spark beta now available to Xbox One

Microsoft announced that its Project Spark beta program will now expand to Xbox One. In December, the Spark beta opened on Windows 8.1, welcoming more than 250,000 fans to the world-creating game. With cross-platform capabilities and through the power of Cloud Saving, “Project Spark” creators can build on a Windows 8.1 device, and then pick-up a controller to continue playing on Xbox One or vice versa.

Project Spark is a game making platform, it is a digital canvas which can be used to make games, movies and other experiences. A player can download other user-generated content, remix that content or create content of their own similar to Minecraft.

The Beta Program enables creators to use “Project Spark’s” developer-grade toolset on both Windows 8.1 and Xbox One platforms, available until the product launches later this year. Explore the infinite possibilities of “Project Spark” and help Team Dakota discover opportunities to bring the digital canvas experience to the next level of world-creation games.
