Hulu Has Launched 4K Streaming Capabilities for Xbox One Devices
Daniel Johnson — October 15, 2019 — Tech
Hulu has brought 4K streaming capabilities to Xbox One devices. Xbox One owners are now able to stream a number of popular titles in 4K on the Hulu platform, including 'The Handmaids Tale,' 'Castle Rock' and more. The majority of the new 4K streaming capabilities are for Hulu's Original shows.
Hulu first released 4K streaming on its platform in December of 2016, where only a small number of titles could be streamed in 4K. However, Hulu's gradual adoption of 4K may in part be due to the fact that it does not charge its customers for 4K streaming.
On other steaming platforms, customers are able to pay more for 4K streaming, but some customers may be more willing to wait longer for 4K streaming if it means they do not pay for it.
