Klobrille, insider and social personality among the most ‘followed’ in the sector, tried to imagine with a fan-made render the appearance that the future Xbox Series X / S dashboard could take on the basis of Microsoft’s ‘grand maneuvers’ between acquisitions and support for services such as Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
For Klobrille, in fact, the huge investments that the Redmond house is making to evolve the Xbox ecosystem could materialize with a reformulation of the Xbox Series X / S dashboard and, with it, with the adoption of a redesigned introductory screen.
Xbox has done an incredible job at investing in talented studios, yet I think so far, failed to translate that to an comprehensive Xbox brand recognition. Many studios barely mention they are part of Xbox on their websites, Bethesda feels too disconnected. More work to do here. pic.twitter.com/sRfLkPxnAQ

The new ‘Xbox Experience’ imagined by Klobrille abandons the interlocking squares of the current Xbox One and Series X / S interface to marry a decidedly more ‘dry’ design that relegates the options to a secondary element and focuses the user’s attention on first-party titles and, of course, on video games to be enjoyed on Game Pass. The main purpose of this important ‘reorganization’ of the interface, according to Klobrille, is to give centrality to every component, old and new, of the Xbox family which includes Bethesda and (once the acquisition is completed) Activision Blizzard.
The image created by the social personality summarizes his vision on the new Xbox Experience showing seven interactive windows from which to quickly access the video games Xbox Game Studios (Forza Horizon 5), Bethesda (Starfield), Activision (Crash Bandicoot), Blizzard (Diablo 4) , ID @ Xbox (Death’s Door), EA Play (Mass Effect Legendary Edition) and the selection of Xbox Game Pass titles that land in the service since Day One (Rainbow Six Extraction).
