Windows 11 has a new preview build which brings in a smart feature for people who like to use their Xbox controller to play games on the PC.
The new preview build 22616 (for the dev and beta channels) is mostly all about a bunch of minor changes and fixes, with one major addition that’s targeted at gamers in the form of a new controller bar.
Said controller bar provides a compact view of the Xbox Game Bar and allows you to easily access your most recently played games – the last three you’ve run are present on the bar – or indeed recently used launchers. So, if you want to fire up Steam again, for example, that ability is just a button press away.
