Prepare for the New Xbox One Experience

With the New Xbox One Experience and Backwards Compatibility  right around the corner here is how to get ready for it! NXOE starts rolling out after 3:01am ET/ 12:01am PT November 12^th. Backward Compatibile titles will be playable or start to appear in your collection (for digital purchases) after 3:01pm /12:01 pm (Noon) PT on Thursday. Microsoft will begin the global rollout of the New Xbox One Experience after 3:01am ET/ 12:01am PT November 12^th.  Not everyone will be getting it at the same time so it will be coming in different waves so be patient and it will come eventually.

This is how to check if you can update your console:

If you use the Instant-on power mode (available via Settings – Power & startup), your Xbox One will take the update in the background.

If your console is in Energy-saving mode To initiate the download and update process, go to Settings > System to manually check if an update is available and then choose the update now option.

All Xbox One consoles will receive a prompt for a mandatory update on November 23^rd if they have not yet updated to the New Xbox One Experience. There is no backing out of this dashboard so its your best interest to update instantly.
