November is just about over, and what a month it has been for gaming. We got the launch of not one, not two, but three new consoles. On the Microsoft side we got the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, which is apparently their biggest console launch ever. This month’s big update is also heavy on new features for the new consoles.

As detailed via the official news site, November 2020’s update will bring lots of new adjustments. While it’s not all exclusive to the Series X/S, a lot of it is aimed that direction. For instance, this update will bring new dynamic backgrounds to give your new systems a sharp look, as well as tags for games that are optimized for Series X/S for easier searches. and a new tag for the Auto HDR function that will let you know when a game is benefitting from the feature. Maybe the most interesting one for many is that you will now be able to pre-install certain titles from the Coming Soon list on Xbox Game Pass so you can get ahead of a game’s release. You can read full details through here.

The Xbox November 2020 update will be rolling to all Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S owners starting today.
