Update, Sept. 24: The updated, extra-fast 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft Store is now available for all Xbox O꧋ne owners outside of China.

Microsoft started rolling out the revised digital store interface to members of the Xbox Insider program in August. It changes the look of the store with the aim of making it easier to navigate for newcomers to the platform, and is also meant to make the store perform more than twice as fast as it did before. This is the same store interface that will appear on the more powerful 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series S platforms, so we can look forward to some 🅠super-fast storefront action in the next ൩generation.

, the new Microsoft Store will start rolling out to the Chinese market later this month.

Bird also outlined the updated storefront in a new . More than anything, he stressed that the new store performs "more than twice as fast as before" on Xbox One (which suggests 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X won't even blink), and this applies to both launching the app and loading individual pages꧑. 

Bird says ꦛthe store's feature set has also been gr𝔍eatly expanded. You'll now be able to use more specific tags and filters to sort games, and the store's wish list has been rebuilt to make it easier to add items and check what you have on your list. With backwards compatibility becoming even more central for Xbox, the store will also show game prices across generations, and you'll be able to add games from other generations to your shopping cart or wish list directly.
