Another Xbox One Preview build is rolling out, one day after the console's Summer Update
The Xbox One Summer Update only rolled out to the public yesterday, but that hasn't stopped the Xbox team dropping yet another build to members of the Preview Program.
Despite only delivering one fix, today's update is notable due to the small window between the previous build's public release and the announcement of today's Preview build. The update, titled rs1_xbox_rel_1608.160729-1700, will begin rolling out to Preview Program members at 6 p.m. PDT.
Here is the changelog for today's update:
FIXES
- My Games & Apps
Resolved an issue where Skyrock app was unusable after updating.
CURRENT KNOWN ISSUES

It's interesting to see another Xbox One Preview build dropping so soon after the public roll-out of the Xbox One Summer Update. It's still unknown whether this regular pace will continue going forward, with another major Xbox One update scheduled to arrive later this year.
