- Microsoft’s March updates for Xbox also brought something for Windows 11
- The game bar has been given an image change, including multiple widgets
- There is also a useful change to improve the game widget store when a controller is used
Microsoft has just brought a series of changes for Xbox consoles in their March updates, but there is also something here for PC players, a new aspect for the game bar (and a useful hand adjustment too).
For not initiated, the game bar is an overlap that can be convened to provide easy and convenient access to a lot of options related to the game. That includes tricks such as the recording of the game, monitoring the performance of your PC, adjust the audio configuration and much more. The bar can be customized with several widgets and is a very useful tool for Windows 11 players in general.
And now, as Neowin Vio, Microsoft has given the game bar a graphic image change, and also tells us that this is the beginning of “several visual improvements that will be implemented this week.”
The general aspect of the bar has been updated, and there are new designs for some of the widgets that can be housed in the game bar. That includes the capture widget, the performance widget, the resource widget and also the Widgets store.
In addition, when you are in the Widgets store, Microsoft says that it has improved the way it sails with the controller, so this will provide a better experience in a compact mode.
It is possible to remember that the compact mode of the game bar was an innovation brought last year, designed to show the content of the overlap more optimally in a smaller space, as its name suggests, which facilitates the life of those who execute Windows 11 in a hand -handed hand.
Analysis: Hand hopes
In terms of its appearance, the game bar has refined considerably during the past year, and this is another step for this overlap to look more modern. These last touches make the bar more orderly and clean, at least in my opinion, so I am satisfied with the general design philosophy that Microsoft has gone here.
It is also good to get that improvement to make it easier to explore the Widgets store with a controller, which is another step forward for those who use the game bar on a Windows 11 hand computer like the ASUS ROG Ally X.
The more Microsoft tinking aimed at such a hand of the game hand, and now there have been enough small steps in that direction, the more hope that I have for an eventual “portable mode” for Windows 11 (which was rumored that it is something that the company has been considering for some time).
