You can now choose which games use Quick Resume on Xbox

Microsoft has released a new update for Xbox consoles that introduces several new features, including the ability for users to disable Quick Resume for specific games. Quick Resume is a feature that allows players to switch between games with minimal wait time, enhancing the gaming experience on Xbox Series X and Series S consoles. However, Microsoft acknowledges that this feature can encounter issues, particularly with multiplayer games or titles that require a constant internet connection. The company stated, "We've heard your feedback around performance after long periods of inactivity or with games that rely heavily on online connections," indicating that user feedback played a role in the development of this new option. In addition to the Quick Resume feature, the update allows Xbox owners to create up to ten groups on their Home screen. This organizational feature aims to enhance user experience by allowing players to categorize and access their games more efficiently. The update is part of a broader set of improvements that Microsoft is implementing across its consoles and the Xbox PC app, indicating a commitment to continually enhance user experience and address player concerns. The ability to customize Quick Resume settings is particularly significant for gamers who may prefer to manage their gaming sessions based on specific titles' requirements or performance issues. This update reflects Microsoft's responsiveness to community feedback and its ongoing efforts to refine the gaming experience on its platforms.
