6 Things to Do First on Your Xbox Series X

Get Your Games Installing

Recommended Videos

With all of the initial set-up out of the way, you’re now all set to start playing your games… if they were installed that is. As soon as possible, get your games installing or downloading (if they’re digital) and leave them to it while you have a poke around the rest of the Xbox Series X.

The sooner your games are installing, the sooner you can check them out and notice all of the improvements that come with your next-gen hardware.

Games like Gears 5 with its 120fps multiplayer and Forza Horizon 4 with stunningly detailed cars and environments are two of our top picks for showcasing the Series X’s capabilities.

Regardless of what you play, though, the Xbox Series X will make sure it looks and plays better than ever, and thanks to the SSD load times will be significantly reduced so you spend more time playing and less time staring at boring loading screens.
