By

Taking to Twitter to answer some of the more pressing questions from fans of the Xbox One, the head of Microsoft's Xbox division, Phil Spencer, revealed some interesting new tidbits concerning the console.

He talked about interesting new elements coming to the feature previews in the upcoming months, but failed to specify any details.

Spencer also talked about some Xbox One games which could have release date scheduled right around the holidays, according to Gaming Bolt.

"Most studios hope to do this with every game they ship, game development is as much art as science, hard to predict this," said Spencer.

Xbox One's big boss also commented on some of the issues facing the console's Party Chat feature. He said the Xbox One team is constantly working to address the issues concerning this particular feature of the console.

Spencer also talked about possible plans to develop a new Windows 10 device which could feature Xbox One streaming. As of now, Spencer said there are no concrete plans to create such a device, but he also said it is an idea worth exploring.

Spencer may already be delivering on some of the things he said during his brief Twitter Q&A as the newest system update for the Xbox One is already designed to address some of the Party Chat issues players have reported, according to IGN.

Notifications for achievements have also been updated with the new system software. The change now causes in-game accomplishments to now pop up within the notifications themselves. This means players will no longer need to activate the Achievements app just to find out how they earned a specific award.

The latest update also features a new tab being added to the homescreen, according to Tech Radar. The new tab features more recommendations concerning games, movies, television shows, and even trending clips of all kinds.
