Microsoft has released a brand new Xbox One firmware update ahead of the release of Crackdown 3. In the changelog, the update mentions that it improves 4K visual performance in games.

This new Xbox One system software update was released just a few hours ago. It is releasing almost two months after the last major update for the Xbox One system software. If you want to verify the system software, it is listed as “OS version – 10.0.17763.4085 (rs5_release_xbox_dev_ 1902.190131-1620)” on the support website. The date is a typo and should have said 2019 instead of 2018.
