Exciting Updates in the Xbox Ecosystem
This month, Xbox enthusiasts can look forward to a host of thrilling updates across various gaming platforms. From enhanced purchasing options in the Xbox app to innovative game streaming capabilities, these features aim to elevate your gaming experience. Whether you’re a mobile gamer or a console aficionado, there’s something for everyone in the latest offerings from Xbox.
Streamlined Purchasing in the Xbox App
One of the most anticipated features that the Xbox community has been eagerly awaiting is now on its way to the Xbox app. Soon, players will have the ability to purchase games and add-on content directly from their mobile devices. This means you can pre-order and set up games for installation on your Xbox console right from the app. For example, you can pre-order upcoming titles like Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 and get ready to dive in on launch day. Additionally, popular titles such as Assassin’s Creed Shadows and MLB The Show 25 will also be available for purchase.
Moreover, Game Pass subscribers can join the service directly through the app, making it easier than ever to access a vast library of games. Ultimate members will also be able to redeem exclusive perks, such as the coveted Sea of Thieves Seventh Serving Emote, all from their mobile devices.
Enhanced Game Streaming Capabilities
Starting today, Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can enjoy the convenience of streaming select games from their own library in addition to the extensive Game Pass catalog on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles. This feature allows players to bypass lengthy downloads and jump straight into gameplay, saving both time and storage space.
The streaming capabilities have expanded beyond consoles, now including devices like Samsung Smart TVs and Amazon Fire TV. Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) continues to grow, offering over 100 cloud-playable games for Ultimate members. To start streaming, simply navigate to My Games & Apps > Full Library > Owned Games on your console.
New Storage Management Tools
In addition to gameplay enhancements, Xbox is also introducing a smarter way to manage storage space on all consoles. The updated features will help players identify unused add-ons and games that can be removed. Suggestions for eliminating duplicate copies and titles no longer accessible will be provided, making it simpler to optimize your gaming library.
To utilize this feature, head to My Games & Apps > Manage > Free Up Space. This proactive approach to storage management ensures that players can enjoy a more streamlined experience without unnecessary clutter.
Game Hubs and Personalized Experience
Xbox is rolling out new game hubs that provide players with vital information about their selected games. These hubs will feature player stats, achievements, and details about friends who are currently playing. Players can easily access recent captures, available add-ons, and upcoming events, all designed to enhance the gaming experience.
With a focus on user engagement, game hubs will prioritize the Play button, allowing for quick access to gameplay. A new setting is also being introduced that enables players to launch games directly without navigating through the game hubs, providing a more personalized gaming experience.
Dynamic Backgrounds and Customization Options
As part of the continued customization options for Xbox Series X|S consoles, a new dynamic background inspired by the upcoming title South of Midnight has been introduced. This allows fans to personalize their consoles in line with exciting new releases. To learn how to set a dynamic background, visit the Xbox Support page.
