New Xbox One Update Brings Convenience to Dashboard

The Xbox One user interface that is Windows-based has been criticized as terribly outdated compared to what PS4 has to offer with its usability and eye convenience interface.

The head of platform engineering of Xbox Mike Yibara has released a teaser of the game "The Wolf Among Us" showcasing some of the newest features of the console integrated in the UI update. Yibara told The Sun about the newly enhanced Guide (akin to PS4's Quick Menu) as an overlay at the side of the screen regardless what the use is doing and this can be accessed through pressing the button in the controller.

Furthermore, the "Jump" section which can be found in the Guide is said to be the key towards achieving speed for multitasking and ease of access. Shortcuts to various features such as home screen, Xbox store, apps and games including the recently accessed ones can be found in the Jump section.
