After Sony released an official hands-on and teardown video for its new Playstation 5 in early October, Microsoft is now following suit. So far, hands-on videos are only available from third parties. In the video, Microsoft mainly shows the new design, the new dashboard and also the apps. The hardware is also briefly discussed, but the focus is clearly on a showcase of the new software. The new generation Xbox dashboard is already available on the Xbox One, but Microsoft also shows animated background images that are only supported by the Xbox Series X and S. Microsoft also gives an outlook on a very exciting feature, an algorithm that is supposed to automatically adapt older games to the new hardware and thus, for example, could enable a higher resolution and better frame rates.

Another interesting feature is Quick Resume, with its Help players should be able to switch seamlessly from the current game to a title paused in the background without having to load times. In addition, Microsoft provides insights into the new associated smartphone app, which is intended to enable remote play among other things. Here, players should have the opportunity to stream a game from the console to their smartphone. The new games library and the new Xbox store were also presented. The new Xbox Series X and Series S should be on 10. November appear.
