Xbox One won't support real name IDs at launch
Xbox One won't support real names at launch, so it looks like rockin' Xxsmokesmadheizenberg666xX is still in the cards for a while. Microsoft confirmed to Kotaku that search by Gamertags will be all that's available at launch.
"Our teams are working hard to deliver a quality experience for Xbox One. This means prioritizing some features and sometimes postponing others for a later update," a Microsoft rep told the site.
We've double-checked with Sony to see if real names are still planned for launch.
