Xbox is introducing a new Friends and Community Updates channel in the app for its Xbox Insiders in the Alpha Skip-Ahead, and Alpha rings. The Friends and Community Updates section on the Home Page will feature your friends’ activity, including their achievements and activity, as well as posts from official clubs and games you follow. Users can also share content by clicking “Got something to share?” The Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha rings are invite-only and give users access to builds earlier than other members of Xbox Insiders.
Xbox App Brings New Friend Updates Feature
To join the Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha rings, Xbox asks interested users to fill out an interest survey in the Xbox Insider hub. After clicking on Activities, Available, and then the Joining New Rings section, Xbox will look at various factors like high-quality submitted feedback, quest/survey participation, and gaming activity to determine which users get chosen for the Alpha rings. Xbox Insiders will have the opportunity to get a sneak peek of new features and provide feedback before they are officially released to the public.
In addition to the Friends and Community Updates channel, Xbox offers new games for its Xbox Games With Gold and Xbox Game Pass subscribers in April. Xbox Games With Gold subscribers can enjoy Out of Space: Couch Edition and Peaky Blinders: Mastermind. At the same time, Xbox Game Pass users will have access to Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly and Minecraft Legends as day one release in April. Xbox is continuing to offer its subscribers a variety of new games and features to keep their gaming experience fresh and exciting.
With the introduction of the Friends and Community Updates channel and new game releases, Xbox is looking to keep its community engaged and connected. The new track will allow users to see what their friends are up to and share content, while the new games will provide a fresh gaming experience for Xbox Insiders. Xbox is committed to keeping its users entertained and connected by offering new features and games.
