What's new on Xbox One for November

November’s here, and so are some great new additions in the November update.

Mouse and keyboard support on Xbox One

Developers now have the option to include mouse and keyboard input in their Xbox One games.

Fortnite and Warframe lead the way with the November update, with Bomber Crew, Deep Rock Galactic, Strange Brigade, Vermintide 2, War Thunder and X-Morph Defense adding support later in November.

Xbox skill improvements for Cortana and Alexa

The Xbox skill for Cortana and Alexa launched last month in the U.S., and with the November release we have the first set of updates.

• Say “Hey Cortana, pair my Xbox” to any Cortana device and Cortana will automatically discover and pair with your Xbox – no signing in necessary.
• The Xbox skill for Alexa has added support for gamers in the UK with the addition of UK English voice recognition. To get started with Alexa, just say “Alexa, open Xbox.”
• The new navigation mode lets you use your voice as your controller. Press buttons (A, B, X, Y) and navigate around your console (up, down, left, right) – say “Start navigation mode” or “Press [button name]” to try it out!

Amazon Music app comes to Xbox One

Amazon Music is launching a brand-new app for Xbox One in the U.S. The Amazon Music app for Xbox lets Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers stream more than 50 million songs and thousands of playlists and stations through their Xbox One family of devices. Prime members can also use the app to stream more than two million songs and hundreds of playlists and stations at no additional cost to their membership with Prime Music.

Search Expansion

Search on Home now includes results from Xbox Assist and games you have “Ready to Install” or currently own as part of your memberships, including Xbox Game Pass, EA Access, and more.
