Microsoft’s Xbox One to get screensavers in future update

Earlier today, Microsoft’s Mike Ybarra previewed several upcoming features coming to the Xbox One console and while many of them were expected, such as the additional dashboard pins, one subtle change slipped under the radar; Screensavers!

The feature was spotted by Twitter user IdleSloth who took the screenshot (above) of Ybarra going through the new settings. An option for enabling a screensaver on the console is clearly visible.

No details have been released about the screensaver or how customizable it could be but it would definitely make the Xbox One more dynamic when it’s not being used.

What sort of screensaver would you like to see on your Xbox One? Let us know in the comments.
