September 28th: Preview Beta build available (1710.170922-1900)

HOW TO GET IT
• If your console is in Instant-On mode and you have been selected to receive the update, it will download and install the update and reboot to standby.
• NOTE: Once the update is available to you, you can manually begin the update by launching the Guide and navigating to All Settings > System > Updates.
• If your console hasn’t downloaded and installed the update by 1:00 AM PDT 9/29/2017 (8:00AM GMT 29/9), you will be prompted to do so at that time.
• NOTE: This update has a shorter than usual amount of time before it becomes mandatory.

DETAILS
OS version released: rs3_release_xbox_dev_170922-1900
Available: 6:00PM PDT 9/28 (1:00AM GMT 29/9)

NEW FEATURES:

• Avatars on Home
See your friends represented as avatars on your Home. New blocks you’ve added, callouts for games friends are playing, and more on your Home screen will now feature today’s animated avatars.

NOTE: After gathering some great feedback, we’re going to take a little more time to test and refine the experience for the redesigned, new Xbox avatars. We’re eager to hear about your new experiences testing the placement of today’s avatars on the Home screen. We’ll take your feedback to heart as we continue working on the redesigned, new Xbox avatars, and keep you updated on the roll out.

• Network Transfer
You can now copy games and apps between Xbox One consoles through your local network connection. Both wireless and wired networks are supported. Navigate to Settings > Networking > Network Transfer to get started and please complete the Try Network Transfer quest in the Xbox Insider Hub so we can learn from your experience!

NOTE: The Try Network Transfer quest will only be visible after your console has downloaded and installed this system update.
