Exciting news for Xbox enthusiasts as new updates for August bring a variety of enhancements, touching on everything from cloud gaming to PC accessory integrations. Let’s dive into the details.
Xbox Cloud Gaming
In a significant move, Xbox has partnered with Amazon Prime to let users dive into gaming on Fire TV devices. Now, the Xbox app can be conveniently found on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max (1st Gen) and Fire TV Cube (3rd Gen).
This app opens the door to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, allowing gamers to play titles directly without a console. Just log in with your Microsoft account, and if you’re subscribed to the Game Pass, cloud gaming is just a click away. Unfortunately, this feature hasn’t reached India yet.
Connectivity Boosts
Xbox consoles are offering more than ever in terms of connectivity. By simply re-linking your accounts, you can now add your Discord friends directly to your Xbox friend list. Plus, sharing your gameplay has never been easier—stream directly to Discord with ease.
Download and Controller Customisations
Saving time and storage just got easier with customizable downloads. Now, you can pick and choose parts of a game to download, optimizing both your time and your hard drive’s space.
In the arena of Xbox accessories, two exciting features are enhancing the gaming experience. The Toggle Hold lets you sustain a button press with a single tap, and a new shortcut option swiftly powers down your devices when needed. These innovations are available on the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 and the Xbox Adaptive Controller. For further details, check out the official Xbox website.
