Microsoft is preparing the Xbox One for the World Cup

The World Cup 2014 is one of the hottest topics there is at the moment. Whether you’re looking for in-depth coverage or streaming live games, it looks as if everyone has something special planned for the tournament. And, not surprisingly, this includes Microsoft. To go along with the recent announcement of ESPN FC World Cup Essentials, the Redmond-based company has now revealed Destination Brazil, a hub for the Xbox that’s set to feature nothing but World Cup content. There will be, among other things, an app dubbed Brazil Now and an original series titled Every Street United.

“GOOOOOAAAAALLL!” Football (or, depending on where you hail from, soccer, futbol, futebol, le foot, or footy) fans around the world are counting down the days to when they can sing that sweet cheer as they watch their favorite teams take the field in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. On June 12, Xbox will bring fans a whole new way to enjoy the game with Destination Brazil on Xbox One. Access Destination Brazil on the Xbox One dashboard to launch Brazil Now, a new app that snaps next to live TV to enhance your match viewing experience, enable you to play “EA SPORTS™ FIFA 14 Ultimate Team: FIFA World Cup™” (EA “FIFA 14” game, sold separately, is required to play) and check out various series about your favorite football clubs from Copa90. Starting on June 15, fans can tune in to the all-new interactive reality show “Every Street United” through Destination Brazil and watch as legendary football players Thierry Henry and Edgar Davids scout the world’s most gifted, undiscovered street stars.
