Xbox One April system update now available for preview members

4.4
The April system update for Xbox One is now available to preview members as announced on Major Nelson's blog. The April update will be coming in two waves, with the first wave already out. More features will be coming next week so stay tuned for more details. Check out the details of the first waves content listed below.

  • Party chat improvements – Party chat is being improved with troubleshooting guidance for Xbox One owners. The Party App will help you get your microphone enabled and show you when privacy settings or networking issues are blocking communication with particular party members.
  • Game hub links – Members can more easily discover game hub content from activity feed items. You’ll see activity feed items when any of your friends follow a game, and you’ll also be able to get back to a game’s hub from activity feed posts related to the game – including feed items about the game’s achievements, game clips and screenshots. Finally, we’ve added a link to game hubs from the game’s page in the achievements app.
  • Achievement notifications – With this preview release, you’ll also see the achievement’s description in the notification so you know what you did to earn this achievement without having to open the achievements app. If you do choose to open up the notification to see the achievement details, we’ve also made some performance improvements to make loading the achievements app from a notification faster.

Seems like a nice addition especially with party chat! Can't wait to see what the future holds.

Haven't really played my Xbox one much recently, I've mostly switched to PC/PS4 but I do go on from time to time. Nice to see that they're still updating monthly!

I really hope there's more than just troubleshooting improvements for the party system.

I like the achievement description being in the pop-up. I'm always too lazy to open it up and figure out why I got the achievement.

Finally Party Chat is being fixed. It is usually so buggy for me.

HereForHelp well this is great , even though I don't own an xbox one & never will xD


Yeah man, same here. Not worth.


Sorry guys that you can't afford it. I am sure the 10 year old Xbox 360 is great for you.


I have an xbox one but if I had to decide between a 10 year old xbox 360 and a PS4, id take the 360. Id rather not have my accounts hacked on PSN..
