Electronic giants Microsoft have claimed that a ‘vast majority’ of Xbox One gamers are using their Kinect hardware.

“Overall, we don’t break down how many console users have Kinect and how many don’t. That’s a level of granularity we don’t want to get into.

I can say that the people with Kinect still make up a very, very sizeable portion and that those people do use it quiet frequently. Less for games, but a lot more for biometric sign-in and user interface.” (Xbox chief marketing officer – Mike Nichols)

This is interesting as a ‘kinect-free’ version of the Xbox One console has been available for quite a while now, and this has seen popularity of the console increase much more.
