Tech tips for enjoying the holidays together – from afar

Friends and family members who normally travel to be together over the holidays are looking for ways to enjoy each other’s company remotely.

Tech can help you get there. Does your clan enjoy games? The Windows team has compiled a list of the best games to play online together using Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, whether you’re on your PC, console or Android mobile devices from the cloud (beta). Or maybe you like to watch movies together? Try the new Teleparty (formerly Netflix Party) extension on Microsoft Edge. This extension works with streaming services such as Hulu, Amazon Prime, HBO GO, Disney+, Netflix and more, and you can use it to sync video playback so you can discuss scenes and react together in a chat.

Head over to the Windows Resource Center for these and other tips to help you enjoy this holiday season with the ones you love.
