Xbox One Update Live This Morning

Only ~350mb or so. For something that needs as much work as the Xbox One, I'm doubtful there's much in here worth getting excited about... We'll see. 

Update from Polygon

According to Xbox support, the latest version of the Xbox One system software adds the following new features:

  • Update to My Game & Apps to allow sorting of games and application lists, and separate queue lists for games, applications and installs
  • Ability to delete game and application save data
  • Improved installation and DLC management
  • Addition of the controller battery power indicator
  • Improved UI for accessing friends, achievements, messages, and party chat
  • Game DVR app to be included in the Xbox OneGuide as an app channel
  • Update to the boot progress indicators for system update
  • Improve consistency of UX for update & install progress
  • Separate game, application, and install queue lists
  • Addition of USB keyboard support

The update also includes a handful of stability and performance-related changes:

  • Improved NAT detection
  • Network Troubleshooter improvements
  • Blu-ray quality improvements
  • Significant performance and stability improvements

Microsoft also confirmed earlier this week that the update makes some slight changes to the Xbox One's thumbstick sensitivity.
