Microsoft is working on faster Microsoft Store for Xbox consoles – Gaming – News

Microsoft has released a new version of the Microsoft Store that the company says has been completely redesigned. The new digital Xbox store is twice as fast, according to the company, and should be safer and easier to use.

The new Microsoft Store for Xbox opens according to Microsoft now in less than two seconds and should respond faster while browsing, loading new pages and watching trailers. The digital store is also designed differently to make shopping faster and ‘more intuitive’. In addition, the search function has been updated with extra filters, it is easier to add games to the wish list and the shopping cart must be more organized.

Innovations to the login and ratings system should also make the Store safer for children. For example, users must now be signed into an Xbox account to use the Store. That way, parents can be assured they won’t see content they’re too young for, Microsoft claims. Content that is outside the set age level of a child is no longer shown to the child. Parents can set exceptions for certain games, movies or TV series.

Microsoft is bringing the Xbox Store to Xbox Insiders from Wednesday, August 5. The updated Store will be available to more Xbox Insiders during the fall. Later the update will come to all Xbox users.
