Gamers are wondering about possible changes coming into Xbox One after holiday update was announced. Luckily, this is the right place to scrub Microsoft for leaked details that might change the way we know the console.
Two changes are coming into Xbox One, according to Windows Central. First is the Guide refresh feature and then the possibility to remove Snap mode. So, without much ado, let us explore the new features that Xbox One will sport come release of this anticipated hardware update.
Going into Guide refresh, this means that gamers can have better access to recent items like games, apps and other Xbox One features. It was rumored that Microsoft is considering to sport a single button that can access Guide menu. This feature is nostalgic of Xbox 360 where everything is available in a touch. As opposed to current Xbox One units, the button needs to be touched twice.
Another easy access feature of updated Xbox One is customizability of pins in the tab. This can be done by accessing the menu for the pins to display. There are chances that these rumored developments can change. But either way, Xbox One owners are in for big changes.
Now going into Snap changes, Xbox One is cooking a replacement for current multitasking feature. GameSpot observed the irritating "snapped" app that usually takes a huge area in the monitor but all it shows is an empty bar. What Microsoft proposed for Xbox One is picture-by-picture system where only those of actual use can be seen.
Here is another interesting point of discussion, Xbox One is said to be prepping the road for Project Scorpio. There are reports that current console will share the same operating system with Scorpio so Microsoft is trying to synchronize everything. Oh, then gamers can already have a glimpse of what Project Scorpio is if this is true.
