New Xbox Update Details
The Update states that there have been slight changes to the User Interface of the Xbox Dashboard. The system update that’s being rolled out is the XB_FLT_2208NI\22621.1729.220720-2200 O.S version. The update will be available around 2 p.m PT on July 22, 2022, and the update will be mandatory around 3 a.m PT on July 23, 2022, in case you forget or don’t update your Xbox. Otherwise, you won’t be able to connect your account online and access online features including networking and Gamepass. The new Xbox Update also features some new and exciting news that Alpha users can access in their Xbox Update Preview Program. The update will roll out a new version of the Controller firmware and it will be available to Alpha users starting today. The update focuses on improved functionality with third-party controllers that can be used with the Xbox Adaptive Controller. This update will also mitigate disconnections commonly observed in controllers when using them with their Xbox or Windows PCs. There’s also good news for people that like to play PC titles with Xbox controllers. The Update also promises to reduct input lag when the Xbox controller is connected to a Windows PC which ensures better and smoother response times across the board. A number of fixes have become possible thanks to hard-working Xbox engineers. Fixes have been implemented to properly reflect local languages across the console. But for now, users participating in Preview may encounter some “odd text” across the console.
Addressing Unfixed Problems in the new Xbox Update
Microsoft has also taken note of some issues that have been listed in the Xbox Insider Release Notes for the new Xbox Update. While these problems have been taken into consideration, it will take a while before Xbox engineers go about fixing these concerns. If you’re still not satisfied with the new Xbox Update’s improvements, fixes, features, and problems taken into consideration, you can use the Report a problem feature or check out the community Subreddit for any fixes mentioned by community members. But that’s not all, Xbox Insiders, Staff members, and moderators are active on the subreddit to help out users. Xbox suggests thoroughly searching and looking at current threads before posting to the subreddit. Xbox encourages users to post to pre-posted threads before creating new ones. This makes things more streamlined for them. The Xbox team ended the patch notes by thanking the community for becoming friendlier and a hub of conversation and support. To learn more about the Xbox Insider Program, follow Xbox Insider on Twitter. So, are you excited for the new Xbox Update or do you think it just addresses problems instead of implementing fixes for them? Making fixes for an ecosystem that millions of users use and access every day isn’t easy. We hope the Xbox team rolls out fixes soon enough for all the problems they’ve addressed.
