Microsoft introduces $40 TV tuner for Xbox One in Europe

If you’re in Europe, you don’t need games on your Xbox One because you can use the console to watch The Price is Right live … if you have that show where you live.

Microsoft revealed a new add-on peripheral for the Xbox One today that enables the console to tune into over-the-air HD television. The device plugs into one of the system’s USB ports, and it can pick up airwaves across multiple standards. Using this tuner, Xbox One owners can surf through channels using the system’s OneGuide channel browser. Viewers can even use the Xbox One (and its built-in hard drive) to pause live TV. So far, Microsoft has only revealed plans to release this TV tuner in Europe for $40.
