Microsoft announced three major updates to their Xbox Live service onstage at E3. They stated these improvements came at the behest of the community, and all three are based on player-to-player interactions.
The first improvement was groups for Xbox Live, which, as the name implies, is intended to allow players to group up for games. The second is to allow players to find other players, and is a “looking for group” type of service, which Microsoft compared to “meet ads.” The third is an upcoming competitive service called “Arena,” which is intended to be a type of tournament mode.
No date was given for the addition of these updates, other than “soon.”
