An incoming Xbox.com update should make being away from your Xbox One a little more bearable – starting next week, you can use the site to check Xbox One data in the form of player activity, Achievements and gameplay clips. The demonstration video below gives a pretty good sense of what to expect from the update.
Whether its a personal profile or a friend’s, users will be able to scroll through and play gameplay clips on a general profile, or pull up a user’s entire library of clips to look through. Comparing Achievements will function similarly to how it worked with Xbox 360 records, though drilling down to a game’s specific Achievement list will let users grab a large version of any Achievement’s artwork.
Major Nelson describes the impending update as “the beginning of a number of community-requested features on Xbox.com,” with more news coming in the summer and fall. Considering this update reflects the highest-voted request on the Xbox forums, it sounds like rallying support for the features you’d most like to see wouldn’t necessarily be a waste of time.
