The Xbox One and the Xbox One app on Windows 10 have been updated to include 12-person party chat.

The feature is now live for all users, and will not require an update as it has been implemented server-side.

The previous maximum party size was eight people, and the update has been released just in time for the launch of Halo 5: Guardians, which includes a 12v12 multiplayer mode, Warzone.

In related news, Microsoft is currently rolling out the latest dashboard update to Xbox One preview members, which includes an updated user interface as well as a handful of new features and adjustments to existing features.
