Xbox launches new reporting feature for in-game voice chats

Xbox announced today that it’s testing a new safety feature for users to report inappropriate voice chats they receive in-game. Specifically, players are able to record footage of a recent interaction — up to 60 seconds’ worth of footage — and then submit it to the safety team. The feature rolls out today for certain levels of Xbox Insiders.

Players can initiate the 60-second reactive recording when they receive the inappropriate message, which they can attach to their report. According to Xbox, it’s designed to be quick and easy to do, with players being able to jump back into their gameplay with minimal impact. The feature is available on Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One and in thousands of games that support multiplayer including Xbox 360-era titles.
