Xbox Insiders Can Switch Their Xbox Startup Screens
Xbox Insiders receive the ability to replace the default “We Are XBOX” splash for the Series X|S with alternate startup animations, smoothing the start‑up experience.
Two legacy options— the original Xbox One and the Xbox One X look—feature the classic green background and the early‑generation logo. Users manage these settings through Settings > System > Startup, where they can also enable or mute the accompanying launch sound for a fully personalized greeting.
New Social and Search Features for Profile Customization
Beyond visuals, Insiders can now display earned badges on their Xbox profile, letting friends see achievements at a glance. The updated My Games & Apps screen also offers direct search for specific titles or badges, expediting the hunt for missed milestones.
Additional Improvements and Upcoming Additions
The latest update enhances Remote Play, supports downloading games while streaming from the cloud, and upgrades party chat, giving players a smoother, more connected experience. While a return to the Xbox 360 splash has not been confirmed, insiders anticipate it as a future tweak.
The choice of startup screen centers on user preference—which of the classic or contemporary visuals sets the tone for your console awake? Let us know in the comments and potentially shape the next iteration of the Xbox experience.
