The release also brings big another change to Mixer, in that broadcasts will no longer stop when the streamer switches games. Instead, the stream will pause and resume automatically, with an indicator displayed on the streamer’s broadcast to let viewers know what’s going on.

Significant updates have also been made to Microsoft Edge on Xbox One, bringing a more modern, streamlined design to the web browser, while also making it easier for users to navigate using a controller.
