Xbox byter varumärkesnamn till XBOX med stora bokstäver efter omröstning

Asha Sharma, vd för Xbox, har meddelat att varumärket hädanefter stavas XBOX med enbart stora bokstäver. Ändringen följer en omröstning på X där en majoritet på två mot en föredrog versaler.

Sharma publicerade omröstningen den 13 maj där hon bad användare att välja mellan "Xbox" och "XBOX". Resultatet ledde till en omedelbar uppdatering av det officiella kontonamnet och användarnamnet på plattformen för att återspegla den nya stilen. Förändringen verkar vara kopplad till arbetet med att förnya varumärkesprofilen, där Sharma i sitt tillkännagivande betonade ett fördjupat fokus på prioriterade områden.
