You can now pre-load updates for certain Xbox games and start playing straight away when they drop.
The Xbox September update is here and it brings a range of new features and changes to the Xbox experience on PC, mobile, and console.
The most significant new addition is the ability to pre-download a game’s upcoming updates on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One. This means that you won’t need to sit through a lengthy download on update release day and can instead jump right into the action.
This could be an absolute game changer, especially for live-service games that frequently receive lots of new content. Unfortunately, the feature is only supported in a few select titles right now. The latest Xbox Wire blog post lists Sea of Thieves, Minecraft, and Cassette Beasts among them, but says to „expect many more titles to support it soon“.
