The second Xbox One May Preview Program update adds voice messaging to parties

Microsoft is in the process of releasing a second May Preview Program update on Xbox One.

Here are the new details of the update:

NEW EXPERIENCES

  • Voice Messages while in a Party. With this update, you can now leave voice messages while in a Party. Previously, you had to leave a Party to leave a voice message.

FIXES

  • US/CA USB TV Tuner Channel Scanning. We received reports that the US/CA Digital TV Tuner would not correctly scan for channels. This has been resolved in this update.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Party app Voice Commands (initial screen only). When launching the Party app, voice commands will not function on  the Party app’s first menu screen (ie. saying “Xbox Select”, followed by “Start a party” or “Learn more”).

The update will be available for all users next month.
