The Latest Update For Xbox One Released

Microsoft has been offering monthly updates for its latest Xbox One gaming console ever since it was launched in November last year. Following the same course, the tech giant recently rolled out a new update for Xbox One, which interestingly, rather than incorporating any new features in the console, will mainly focus on addressing most of the persistent issues in the device.

Microsoft chat support team said that this new update for Xbox One was earlier released in its beta testing program as a pack of patches that included fixes for issues like gameplay recording and multiplayer voice chat. After analyzing the upgrades for almost a week, Microsoft launched the final update for Xbox One in the last week of May.

The major segments that this newly launched system update will deal with include the issues in recording a video, and problems in the Party Chat feature. The update will offer a fix for Game DVR to assure that no more issues arise while recording a gameplay video. Microsoft chat support team also highlights that the System Update button in the gaming console will stay grayed if there is no important update available for the device. Microsoft tech support team has also revealed that Xbox One will now support external storage, and allow expanding the available memory with up to two USB 3.0 hard drives.

The latest update offers attractive deals for Gold members, and allows accessing an array of free Xbox One’s Games with Gold subscription. In addition to that, apps such as Netflix and Hulu Plus will not be concealed under the Gold membership barricade anymore. The update will also allow users to set up an account in Xbox One and sign in automatically when the device in turned on.

It is noted that though Microsoft’s Xbox One and Sony’s PlayStation 4 were launched in the same time frame, Sony released the first update for its gaming device by the end of April. The update for PS4 mainly included features to improve the video and screenshot sharing functions, as well as redefine the built-in video-streaming features.

On the other hand, Microsoft releases monthly updates for its Xbox One gaming device, focused on incorporating new features as well as addressing persisting issues in the console, and is supposed to carry on with the trend for an unknown projected period. Let us wait and see how this strategy helps Microsoft’s Xbox gaming device outshine other competitors.
