Xbox One SDK plagued by eleventh hours bugs

4.7

Rumour has it Microsoft is busting a gut to clear up errors with the Xbox One’s software development kit ahead of the console’s launch next month.

Various anonymous development sources told Kotaku that there are a number of issues with the SDK.

The sources say a collection of bugs was uncovered in the most recent version of the development software, and that some games have had to be resubmitted for certification with a newer version of the SDK.

As a result, both Microsoft and development teams are said to be in crunch to get software ready for launch.

“It’s going to be a fun few weeks in Microsoft QA,” one source said.

However, another source said this kind of thing always happens at hardware launch and isn’t necessarily indicative of potential problems for consumers at launch.

The Xbox One drops in North America, western Europe and selected PAL territories on November 22.

Rumors like this always come out and it's always hard to believe them and I'm always skeptical.

I'll find out for myself when I receive my console.

Hope all speculations for this will be on the good side and the Xbox one will be at its best when it releases.

"To all the friendly redditers, I have a very reliable source who has used the QFE 5 version of Xbox One's OS and it's perfectly fine"

"I'm told there are a few niggling missing features but everything else is fine #XboxOneOSGate"

"I'm also told from source X1 OS is in better shape than PS4 OS, but both will be ready for launch"

Glad to hear the OS is doing good but still, why are these rumors just now coming out? It's not like PC Elitist or Sony Fanboys are looking for a silly way to attack a console.

I guarantee you it is a huge exaggeration.

As long as it is not a problem on the release date then everything should be fine.
