Pin games to Quick Resume
Xbox Series X|S consoles include the Quick Resume feature that allows you to quickly switch between multiple games and resume the game where you left off. With today's update, you can pin up to two games in Quick Resume on your Xbox Series X|S. The pinned game will remain there unless you manually unpin it or a game receives a major update.
The updated Xbox Accessories app allows remapping buttons on supported Xbox accessories. This includes the ability to assign one of the predefined actions to the Share button. You can make it mute TV, open friends list, open achievements, and more. By default, it is set to capture a screenshot or record a video, depending on how you press it.
Besides, Elite Series 2 Controllers, Xbox Adaptive Controllers are getting a few new actions.
