Xbox Rebrands to XBOX; Edge Gets Major Copilot Update

Microsoft has rebranded Xbox to XBOX, a change that came after a poll by Xbox CEO Asha Sharma. Fans voted for the all-caps version. Here's the thing: Microsoft also saw a big win with Forza Horizon 6, which hit over 170,000 concurrent players on Steam during early access. This is more than double the peak for its predecessor. What's more, Microsoft Edge received a significant Copilot update. Edge can now reason across multiple tabs, allowing users to ask questions and compare items. Its redesigned new tab page is also available on mobile. Journeys, a feature that groups browsing history by topic, is now on mobile devices, and Edge can use long-term memory for more relevant answers. The Vision and Voice feature lets users share their screen with Copilot and discuss web page content. A new Study and Learn mode creates interactive quizzes, and a writing assistant can help generate and rewrite text. The bottom line: These updates show a focus on user-driven changes and enhanced AI integration across Microsoft's platforms.
