Microsoft has released a 15-minute video walkthrough for its upcoming Xbox Series consoles, offering a deeper dive into the systems.

The video, which dropped earlier today, offers fans a closer look at various features of the Series S and X consoles such as Quick Resume, the Auto-HDR feature, and closer looks into the UI and the new controller’s share button.

Hosted by Xbox Principal Program Manager Harrison Hoffman and Community Program Manager Malik Prince, the video starts with a quick boot-up of the console before Hoffman and Prince show off the Xbox Series consoles’ Quick Resume feature which allows players jump between games within seconds.

During the video, Hoffman and Prince launched several games including Xbox One game Subnautica which benefits from the consoles’ Auto-HDR feature which implements HDR into backwards compatible games, adding deeper colours and boosting visuals too.

Also featured in the video was a closer look at the new Share button on the Xbox Series controller which allows users to take screenshots and record gameplay with a quick click of a button, a look at the consoles’ remote play function on mobile devices, and an in-depth dive into the new Xbox store.

The Xbox Series X and S consoles launch worldwide on November 10th, 2020.
