Xbox One February system update offers game hubs, tv updates, and more

Last year Microsoft, added hundreds of new features to Xbox One – mostly due to user feedback. In February of this year, Xbox One is set to release another system update with an all-new feature called game hubs. With game hubs, you can share comments and content with your Xbox Live friends, game developers, and other Xbox Live members about your favorite Xbox One game. Microsoft has also added more tile transparency for custom backgrounds and a handful of updates to live TV.

Those enrolled in the Xbox Preview program can snag this update right now. According to Xbox Wire, here is a full list of what is included in the Xbox One February update:

• Game hubs
