- Smart Delivery: If you buy a game on Xbox One, you can play it on Xbox Series X at no additional cost. This feature concerns all first-party games (developed by one of the Xbox Game Studios), but also games from third-party publishers (Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Cyberpunk 2077 …).
- Quick-resume: the ability to instantly resume a game without having to load your save (like on Xbox One), on several games at the same time (that’s the novelty).
- Xbox Velocity Architecture: improved performance (faster loads, more stable frame rates and higher resolutions) for Xbox Series X games as well as Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Xbox games.
- Cross-play / cross-gen: Few studios have so far mentioned next-gen cross-play except Bungie who explained that initially, Xbox One players will be able to play with Xbox Series X players on Destiny 2.
- Storage expansion of 1 TB via a Seagate “memory card” for performance identical to the console SSD.
- The technical characteristics (1TB SSD, the teraflops race, the ventilation of the future).
