The Xbox Series X function

Microsoft is now testing a new Xbox Series X feature | S that will allow people to revive their ancient Xbox 360 player images on the newer consoles. This means that if you have had a profile image in your account that has not aged a lot over the years or has not been available for you in the current generation of consoles, you will have the option to present it soon. The function is currently being tested before its eventual public launch.

Eden Marie, the engineering leader of Xbox, published on Twitter this week to alert the followers of her about the new Xbox Series X feature | S which is currently under test. It is available right now for those who are on the Alpha Skip Ahead Insider ring. If you are part of that group, all you have to do to prove it is to restart your console if you have not done it yet and then go to the option «Change player image».

Once you have done that, you should see the screen shown in the Marie images above, although yours will look a little different, of course, according to the player images you have.

However, there are some warnings with this function. The Xbox 360 player image that you see in the selection will be based on what is currently using Xbox 360 , said Marie in the answers, so if you want to have other Xbox 360 player images as options in the consoles more New, you will have to change your player image on the 360 ​​itself ».

For your information, this will only appear if you have ever had an Xbox 360 player image, and if your current player image is not your Xbox 360 player image, Marie said. «Once configured, any future change you make on an Xbox 360 console will be transferred automatically».

The uproar by the Xbox 360 player images is due largely to the nostalgia experienced by those who have been playing in the Xbox consoles for so long and had specific profile images that attracted them. While Xbox, of course, made playback images following the model of his larger franchises such as Halo and Gears of War, others were an arcade image hodgepodge to choose, including smiling faces, the child with a hat blowing a bubble, A panda, a dog, the pirate, the monkey with a red background and more.

This Xbox function is currently being tested only on stage Alpha Skip Ahead, which means that it could happen a little more time before it is available for everyone. However, if you are part of that group, you can try it now.
