Yet another refresh of the Xbox homescreen is rolling out now to Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One consoles globally.

After Microsoft in April abandoned plans – following pushback from users – to launch a new Xbox homescreen full of ads, it has tweaked the design to show slightly fewer ads and larger background artwork.

It appears that there are still plenty of ads, though, especially for Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass subscription service. However, there are also a number of improvements to layout, navigation and artwork.

The new homescreen is rolling out now gradually worldwide. Microsoft says that it will take a few weeks before it reaches all consoles.

Microsoft highlighted three key features of the new homescreen:
Provides easy navigation to your library, the Microsoft Store, Xbox Game Pass, search, and settings at the very top of your Home by introducing a new quick access menu.
Simplifies the layout and makes more space for you to see your background by reducing the size of some of the tiles and moving them to the bottom of the screen.
Adds a responsive game art feature to update the default background and show off the beautiful art associated with each title when you hover over the tiles.
