The latest system update for Microsoft’s Xbox One has started rolling out, and it brings along a few much requested features.

The update has a number of small tweaks, starting with some adjustments to the friend system that will notify you when friends and favorites sign into Xbox Live. In addition, friends in multiplayer will also be identified in the friends list.

The update is also adding a game save progress bar that will show you the status of your saves, and you’ll be able to see what games and apps are in the process of updating or have recently updates.

Finally, Microsoft has improved the video quality in GameDVR, done some more tuning to the Kinect voice and motion detection, and has given us 50Hz video output for Blu-Ray content, as well as a controller and headset adaptor firmware update.

No word yet on an update that will include an Xbox One that can be purchased without a Kinect.
