A minor update is heading out for Xbox Insiders on the Alpha ring
A tiny update is heading out for users on the Xbox Insider's Alpha ring.
The update contains "miscellaneous fixes and improvements," but sometimes, that's secret code for "behind the scenes improvements we will activate later." Microsoft recently unveiled custom gamerpics and other features are on the way for Xbox One, so it's fair to speculate that some aspects of this update might contain goodies for future functionality.
Here are the details.
