By Vincent Funaro, Christian Post Reporter Monday, May 19, 2014

The Xbox One May software update is now rolling out to the console's users.

This software greys out the "Get System Update" when no patch is available and it will say "Update Console" if the system software isn't up to date.

Voice recognition will also be improved as clips taken from the console will be sent to Microsoft who will analyze the algorithms of the voice to get the best possible results.

The issue with the Party Chat app muting when players forgot to Snap the app is now corrected and those having issues with the Game DVR clips will be happy to know that it should no longer be a problem after downloading the new patch.

Another upgrade should be released sometime next month. Features for it should be announced soon.

Microsoft released the Xbox One console at the end of last year.

The system features 8GB of RAM, an 8-Core CPU, 500GB hard drive, a Blu-ray drive, HDMI in and out ports, USB 3.0, 802.11n wireless, and a built-in Kinect sensor. Microsoft describes the Xbox One as an "all in one system" that is made for encompassing games, entertainment and television all into one device.

The Xbox One is designed to improve over time thanks to cloud computing. The console has have the ability to communicate with servers in the cloud to increase the computational potential of the system. Xbox One Director of development Boyd Multerer commented on the relationship around the time of the console's release.

"[As a developer] I can start doing things like shifting latency insensitive things to the cloud. You may have a limited number of transistors in your house, but you have an unlimited number of transistors in the cloud," he said.
