Microsoftは、Xboxエコシステムに関するアイデアや要望をユーザーが投稿できる新プラットフォーム「Xbox Player Voice」を導入しました。このツールは、フィードバックがどのように検討され優先順位付けされているかを公開することで、透明性を高めることを目的としています。現時点でプレイヤーからの要望として多いのは、より多くの独占タイトルやオンラインマルチプレイの無料化などです。
同社はXbox Player Voiceの立ち上げを発表しました。これは従来の「Xbox Cloud Gaming」フィードバックポータルに代わるものです。ユーザーはプラットフォームの改善案を共有できるようになり、Microsoftはそれらのアイデアに進展があった際に状況を更新することを約束しています。
