Background music playback won't be coming to Xbox One before summer

4.8

Since Microsoft rolled out the New Xbox One Experience in November, new features have been added. There are still plenty of features in development, but one feature that is at the top of the list won't be making it's way to the Xbox One for some time.

That feature is background music playback, which will let you have the ability to open a music app on the console, and then jump into a game full-screen while the music continues to play.

Phil Spencer responded to a tweet saying that it won't be out "before summer."

@TheEjderha83 Won't be before summer sorry to say.

Wow, this would be a major implement if Microsoft could pull it off. I was really looking forward to this soon but I guess I will continue to look forward even longer.
