If you have an Xbox Series X|S or an Xbox One, you may have noticed a few changes to the Home screen recently. That’s because Microsoft has been rolling out an update for the current and previous-gen consoles, which brings some alterations to the system UI.
A post over on Xbox Wire gives an overview of what you’ll see the next time you turn on your console (if you haven’t done so already). The post says this latest update is the result of feedback from users and is designed to make it easier to “discover new games, rediscover games you already love, connect with communities, and create a more personalized experience.”
So what’s new?
First and foremost, your Library, Xbox Game Pass, Search, and Settings options have been moved to the top of the UI. The layout has been simplified to create “more space for your personalized background,” while recent games and apps you’ve opened have been moved down a tad.
What else? There’s now a personalized list of recommended games that have been curated for you, and an option to change your Home background so it matches the game you’re currently playing.
However, it appears as though not all Xbox users will have gotten the update yet. The post says that “some customers will need to wait a few weeks to get their hands on it,” but it is coming to all Series X|S and One consoles soon.
