Chief of Microsoft Xbox Live, Larry Hryb, has announced a new quick resume feature for the Xbox Series X, which would instantly resume multiple games after the console has rebooted, or even after switching titles.

“I had to reboot because I had a system update, and then I went back to the game and went right back to it, so it survives a reboot,” The Verge quoted Hryb as saying recently.

As per the report, the feature is similar to the Xbox One that helped players to resume their games, but in the Xbox Series X they have developed it and now players can resume multiple games from a suspended state whether the user rebooting the console, switching games, or resuming from standby.

The company had earlier confirmed that the Xbox Series X will include 12 teraflops of GPU performance. The proposed concept is twice of what is available in the Xbox One X and eight times the original Xbox One.

Overall, the Xbox Series X will be launched with significant upgrade over the Xbox One X in terms of processing power and will house new features for immersive gaming experience. The console’s design allows it to be used in both vertical and horizontal orientations and it will deliver four times the processing power of Xbox One X in the most quiet and efficient way.

Microsoft Xbox Series X will be powered by custom-designed AMD CPU based on Zen 2 and Radeon architecture.

It will also support 8K gaming, frame rates of up to 120 fps in games, ray tracing, and variable refresh rate support.
