Xbox Series X/S massive system update rolls out some long-awaited changes

Xbox fans are certainly feasting well today. In case you missed it (although I’m not sure how that’s possible), today isStarfield’s official launch day. A bunch of you have already been enjoying early access, but the game is now available to all.

Starfieldis splitting opinion far more so than any of us perhaps expected. I had the pleasure of reviewing the game here at GAMINGbible, giving it a perfect 10 out of 10.Our reviewreads, “Every now and then, a new game comes along that changes our perception of what the industry is capable of.Starfieldis that game. This is beyond what we’ve come to know an open-world to be.Bethesdahas created a universe that, despite its vast scale, maintains interest and an impressive attention to detail throughout.” Apparently, the game hasover two million playersalready. If you are loading up yourXboxto dive in soon, you’ll also notice a few new system changes as Microsoft are rolling out a massive update.

Take a look at our video review ofStarfieldbelow.

The latest update is ready to roll out and it includes a number of highly-requested changes. The big headliner is that all Xbox users will now be able to stream from their console directly to Discord. This feature was announced a while back, but it was previously in testing via the Xbox Insiders programme. That testing is now over and the feature will soon become available to all.
