Following the announcement of the first 104 Xbox One Backward Compatible games earlier this week, Microsoft has officially announced that it is now launching its all-new Xbox One Experience, which promises to deliver "the fastest and most social Xbox experience ever", alongside the ability to play Xbox 360 games on current-gen consoles.
To get the New Xbox One Experience update, all you have to do is:
- If you use the Instant-on power mode (available via Settings > Power & startup), your Xbox One will take the update in the background when you put your console into Connected Standby mode
- If your console is in Energy-saving mode, you must go to Settings > System to manually check if an update is available and choose "Update Now"
The New Xbox One Experience will begin rolling out starting today from 3:01am ET/12:01am PT, while Backward Compatibility will be available starting 3:01pm ET/12:01 pm PT.
