Xbox Insiders can try three new console customization options: rotating backgrounds, a separate library category for digital licenses claimed from discs, and a choice of which side of the screen displays the Guide menu. Microsoft says the features will reach more players over time.
Users can save favorite dynamic backgrounds and shuffle among them, according to Eden Marie, Xbox’s principal software engineering lead. Backgrounds can change at sign-in or on an hourly, daily or weekly schedule. The shuffle option is also available at the start of any background category.
The library update separates games for which players have claimed a digital license from a disc-based copy into their own category. Users can also hide the digital-license icon on game tiles.
The Guide menu can be set to appear on either the left or right side of the screen. Alpha Skip-Ahead members get the first chance to test the options, Marie said, before Microsoft expands access to other Xbox Insiders and players.
