Xbox One: announced the news of February's update now available to members Preview

I didn't expect for next week but Microsoft amazed us announcing today all features included in the new Xbox One update, available today to members preview (but not all the news will be available, some will come in the next few days) and from February for everyone else. The update introduces a mix of new features and old feature that users required because disappeared with upgrading to Windows 10, called New Xbox One Experience.

Let us see what to expect:

  • See who's in the Party : as we already knew, the update will reintroduce the ability to see the members of the party of our friends before we join them.
  • Of Gamerscore : gone with the November update, back now in a new ranking of friends who have gotten more points Gamerscore in recent 30 days. Rather than on the Home screen of the console, though, this will be found in the section "objectives" of our profile, so it is a bit more hidden.
  • Rearrange and add items offline access at Home : you can now reposition and change the order of items-games, apps, etc.-added to the Home console, the website and accessible by scrolling down the homepage. These items are now also available offline, while so far were only available if connected to Live.
  • Updated activity feeds at Home : now if you start to scroll through your friends ' activity feed and new items arrive, you will be informed by means of a special gauge that, when clicked, will take you back to the top of the list.
  • Greater ease of operation of transmissions Twitch : you can now run directly our friends from Game broadcasts Twitch Hub from tile that identify the games on the interface.
  • Improvements to friends Recommended : a new function in the Community area and in your friends list from Guide shows us now all players who may be our friends, including why there were encouraged.
  • Hide games from the list "ready to install" : this was a lost function with the NXOE update and now reintroduced. You can hide from the list of games to install those titles that you no longer want to see, such as demos or old beta.

They also announced 10 new for Windows app too, as the Avatar Store, friends recommended improvements and more. These will come though in the coming weeks in the beta version of the App.

We leave you to a trio of images showing some of the new stuff, and if you try them in Preview, let us know what you think!
