When Microsoft first announced the Xbox One, the company pitched its new console as an entertainment hub for the living room. Although the console launched with plenty of apps and features to make that promise a reality, some of the most requested entertainment apps are still absent. Five days out from E3 2014, Microsoft is finally ready to start discussing those apps, including HBO GO, Showtime Anytime, Comedy Central, MLG and Twitter.

With nearly 50 new apps slated to arrive before the end of the holiday season, the Xbox One and Xbox 360 app catalog will grow to contain over 225 apps. HBO GO is understandably receiving more attention than any other app, but the Xbox One’s upcoming Watch with Twitter integration is worth checking out as well. If constant social interaction is your thing, you’ll be able to follow all the latest tweets related to the show or movie you’re watching at the bottom of your screen.

“We’re enhancing that experience on the Xbox One with a unique Watch with Twitter integration,” says Twitter’s Jana Messerschmidt. “It will now be easier to discover what shows are trending in real-time on Twitter, tune-in and follow the conversation right from within the Xbox One interface. We are excited to work with the Xbox One team and continue to deliver unique entertainment experiences.”
