Those on the Alpha ring of the Xbox Insider program are today receiving a wealth of new features, due to Microsoft pushing the first 1704 build to its gaming console. This build contains many of the previously announced features, such as custom gamerpics.

While the below list of features is on its way, not all of them will be available immediately, as they will be rolling out in stages to Insiders.

Arena on Xbox Live

Profile and Activity Feed

Clubs and Looking for Group (LFG)

My Games and Apps, and Settings

If you’re worried about the amount of known issues as a result of the new features – it appears there’s few, with only two being reported as known:

Settings – Display & sound

Wireless Display
