  1. Xbox Series X slowdown when downloading games


    Hello, every time I try to download a game on my Xbox Series X the console gets extremely slow, the download speed gets close to 2 mbps and it takes forever to open the games and apps tab, after a few minutes the console seems to go back to normal and the download speed normalizes at 500 mbps which is my internet speed. From what I tested my network doesn’t seem to be the problem. When I’m not downloading anything the console seems to work just fine, is this slowdown normal to happen when downloading a game? Has anyone that had the same issue or something similar know a solution?

    Pre download Xbox Series X games

    Not really...

    Xbox Series X games / upgrades / updates has to be installed onto the Series X internal or expansion card SSD,

    You can have Xbox One games on your external hard drive that will get an Series X upgrade but the games will need to be transferred to the Series X and then the Series X upgrade will need to be downloaded onto the Series X SSD,

    As an example...

    I have Marvel Avengers on my external hard drive that will get the Series X upgrade and I will transfer the game over to the Series X SSD ready to download and update the game to the Series X version when available.

    Downloading

    I was under the understanding that when you download an Xbox series x game it has different code, so it wouldn't be possible on xbox one x. Which would also be the same for the hard drive. The xbox series x game is apparently different than the same game
    for the series x.

    Can't download Starfield for Xbox one serie X

    I have the Xbox one X project Scorpio, I was told that the game can be downloaded in any serie X or serie S (included mine), thanks for the help!!
    Game can only be downloaded on a Series S and Series X, but not an Xbox One X. Xbox One X is not the same as a Series X.
