Microsoft first revealed its redesigned Xbox One dashboard
back at E3 earlier this year, and now the company is announcing that it
will arrive on consoles in November. Powered by Windows 10, the new
dashboard includes features that focus on speed and performance, and a
design that’s a lot more simplified.
One
of the key new features in the Xbox One dashboard update is Cortana
integration. You can say “Hey Cortana, record the last minute and share
it to my activity feed” and it will publish a game clip straight away.
Likewise, “Hey Cortana, start a party and invite Amanda” will invite a
friend into a voice chat all without having to lift your fingers from
your controller. Cortana will require the Kinect sensor for audio controls.
