Xbox System Update for March 24

Microsoft has rolled out a new Xbox update for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles on October 9, and it’s a minor update, meaning don’t expect anything major in terms of features.

Gamers on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One should see the download pop up the moment they turn on their console, with it being a small download.

Xbox Update on October 9 Makes Your Console Even More Stable

Microsoft states this new system update will bring the OS version to 10.0.26100.5735. Here’s what the update does:

  • General stability and performance improvements.

Yep, that’s really all there is in this update. Usually, whenever a big new Xbox system update is released, Microsoft will announce all the new features ahead of time. So don’t go on expecting any major surprises, as you’ll know first before the update even drops when that happens.

In related Xbox news, Microsoft recently addressed rumors of exiting the console race, noting that they are actively considering investing in the console market, with a reference to their recent AMD partnership. Another rumor followed shortly, claiming that an alleged AMD engineer stated those plans were “full steam ahead,” with internal discussions having taken place just this past week at the company.

Once another Xbox firmware update is released, we’ll let our readers know. Let’s hope another major one is rolled out before 2025 ends.
