We’ve got a patch incoming today which will update both PC and Xbox One versions.
The servers for all players will be going offline at 10am BST and we’re expecting them to be back up, online and ready to download within a few hours.
The Xbox One download will be approximately 2GB and will be bring paintjobs and game extras to Xbox One Commanders.
In addition when the update goes live there will be some changes to the Xbox Store products which means there will be an Arena standalone product (which will include playing with existing Elite Dangerous owners on the same platform), and a season one bundle which is both Elite Dangerous and Arena combined. We would like to stress that existing players need not purchase either of these items as you already have access to all of the content included.
