Microsoft is calling this the “first wave” of their Xbox One applications, with more following for both their new console and the Xbox 360:
Amazon Instant Video
Crackle
CWTV
ESPN
FOX NOW
FXNOW
HBO GO (listed as “coming soon”)
Hulu Plus
Machinima
MUZU TV
Netflix
Redbox Instant by Verizon
Target Ticket
TED
The NFL on Xbox One
Twitch
Univision Deportes
Verizon FiOS TV
VUDU
Note that these apps, available on the console’s November 22 launch day, are for the US only, and require an Xbox Live Gold subscription. In other regions, the Machinima, TED, and Twitch apps will be universally available, while Netflix will be an option in Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Ireland, and the UK. There are also several non-US region-specific apps, such as Eurosport in, well, Europe.
The Xbox One will also ship with these first-party apps, which will be available in all regions on their respective launch days:
Xbox Fitness
Xbox Video
Xbox Music
Internet Explorer
Skype
SkyDrive
Upload
I’m sure everyone will be busy doing cardio in their downtime.
