Guide Improvements

We’re excited to announce a new simplified Guide! The modified layout is available to a subset of Alpha Skip-Ahead and Alpha users starting today. This experiment introduces improvements to Guide tabs to give players combined access to Parties & text chats, and necessary settings and features with Profile & system. The default tab order opens Guide with tabs in a left-to-right configuration. You can customize these how you like from the Profile & system tab.

Parties & chats – Jump into messages, interact with invites, and start a party all from this combined tab. Parties & chats gets you connected immediately!
Profile & system – This tab now has Settings, audio, customization, and power options in addition to user switching and your profile. In the middle of the game and need to make a quick change? You can now do that from the Profile & system tab!
Additional Changes to Guide
- App and system notifications now display under the bell icon with other alerts when you open Guide – you no longer have to navigate to a separate tab to find out what’s new!

Looking for Group can now be found in the People tab next to the “Find someone” option.

Audio

Users who have Dolby Atmos enabled and console display settings set to 120hz with 36 bits per pixel (12-bit) are experiencing loss of Dolby Atmos audio in some situations.
- Workaround: Disable 120hz or set Video Fidelity to 30 bits per pixel (10-bit) or lower.

Home

Users who use Energy-saving power mode may see the dashboard showing no network connection on boot. We are aware of the issue and investigating.
- Note: The dashboard will refresh once the network connection is established, but may take up to a minute.

My Games & Apps

Users have reported seeing black tiles instead of game artwork when browsing their collection.
Some titles in collection may appear with a “trial” tag incorrectly in collection.

Networking

Users have reported being unable to connect to network when password contains trailing space.
- Workaround: Use a different network password without that character.

Profile Color

Sometimes users may encounter the incorrect Profile color when powering on the console.
