Summary

- Players who experience or witness inappropriate verbal behavior can “capture now, report later” minimizing impact to their gameplay.

- The voice reporting feature will be available first to Xbox Insiders to gather feedback from the community.
The clip lives on your console for 24 online hours, giving you the flexibility to either submit immediately or wait until you’re ready. We’ll also send you a reminder to report if you haven’t completed one within the 24 online hour period. If you decide not to report, the clip will be erased from your console automatically. We’ve also made updates to our notification features so the player that submitted the report will get a notification about whether or not Xbox took action on the report submitted.
