Xbox launches shiny new Home dashboard for Series X/S, One consoles
Microsoft is now launching its new Home dashboard for all users of its Xbox Series X/S and One consoles.
This new-look dashboard has been known about and used by Xbox Insiders for several months, but over the next few weeks it will made available to the rest of the X/S and One community.
Microsoft said the new design has come following players' feedback, and its arrival on consoles will make discovering new games — and rediscovering old ones — easier.
In a blog update about the new dashboard, Xbox laid out the following benefits to the new look:
1: Makes it easy to go to your Library, the Microsoft Store, Xbox Game Pass, Search, and Settings at the very top of your Home by introducing a quick access menu.
2: Creates more space for your personalised background by simplifying the layout and putting the games you recently played and other content and apps towards the bottom of the screen.
3: Adds an option to change your background to match the game you are highlighting in the recently played list.
4: Improves game discovery by introducing lists of games curated and personalised for you.
5: Allows you to customise your experience by pinning your favourite games, curated groups, and system groups like Quick Resume to Home.
6: Helps you find what's going on in your community through the updated Friends & Community Updates row.
7: Shows you what media apps and content are available to you via a Watch & Listen spotlight and list of entertainment apps
