Apart from making the process of accessing their games more convenient, this update will provide players with better control over their consoles.
So far, PS5 players have taken good advantage of the various input functions that Xbox players were deprived of for the longest time.

All said and done, this new update can be availed of only by a handful of players. This is because the Xbox Series X has been suffering from supply-related issues and many players are finding it difficult to lay their hands on one. As per reports, these issues will continue to persist till next year. Those who do not own an Xbox Series X console should wait for a few more updates, that Microsoft has planned to make access to games easier, to come out.
