Microsoft’s latest update includes more additions and tweaks to the Xbox One. At this time, however, they’re exclusive to particular Xbox Insiders and a number of “subset gamers”. Within the next few weeks, the remaining Insider participants will be able to get in on the fun. There are 8 changes coming to the Xbox One, and among those changes is the new Copilot feature. Mike Ybarra and company call it the “Creators Update”. In the video below, Larry Hyrb and Scott Henson go into detail regarding the update. Check it out!

With the Copilot feature, Xbox One developers had players with accessibility issues in mind. Particularly, those with impaired movement, or simply need assistance. Copilot allows two controllers to act as one, meaning cooperative controls and an easier time to enjoy games. Not only that, they have improved Magnifier and Narrator, more audio output options, and custom rumble settings for the controller. All of these features are in the Ease of Access section under Settings.
