Microsoft’s Medhi: Expect a redesigned, controller-friendly Xbox One UI

Xbox’s Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer Yusuf Mehdi has indicated that the Xbox One’s user interface (UI) will be redesigned in an effort to make it more controller-friendly. This news comes after Microsoft revealed they’ll begin to sell a Kinect-less Xbox One bundle from June.

“We do want to find ways to give you some of those shortcuts and make some of the things that we have with Kinect easier with the controller,” Mehdi to Engadget. “You can expect to see us do a bunch of things over the coming months to make the experience easier and easier, even if you don’t have a Kinect.”

Medhi indicated that the UI change will be implemented after E3.
