Since the Xbox Series X|S launch, the highly talked about feature Quick Resume has been a little rocky, with some games completely disabling the feature until the bugs are ironed out.
Xbox's Jason Ronald noted this recently and promised more news in the coming days and weeks, and it seems it may be closer than expected as the next Skip Ahead Alpha build for Insider members appears to have rectified the issue.
As pointed out by The Verge’s senior editor Tom Warren, amongst the patch notes for the next updates, one states: “Fixed an issue where Quick Resume was not working correctly for titles.”
As with previous Insider updates, these will roll out to all Xbox members soon, suggesting that Quick Resume could be fixed. It is worth noting that the notes are fairly vague and don't specifically highlight which titles, but fingers crossed it's all of them!
Looking forward to Quick Resume getting fixed? Let us know in the comments below.

I noticed yesterday that Forza Horizon 4 now seems to have Quick Resume enabled again! That was a surprise. BC games still aren't doing it for me, though. And Legion seems to happen less than more. Hopefully it's going to get ironed out, and hopefully additional features like knowing when QR will or won't work or wil be bumped off the list will be added soon. Fantastic feature, really makes playing a lot faster and more convenient even than PS5's fast SSD (miles startup logos.....again....) But it needs to be quite improved.
I wonder how they allowed to release this feature in this state. With all the marketing they could at least test it properly.
But QR is indeed revolutionary feature. I just wish it be more reliable and transparent
@NEStalgia The 360 titles I tried don't seem to work and Forza Horizon 4 has been intermittent since launch for me. When it does work it is an excellent feature. Hopefully the bugs will be ironed out and it works for all titles soon.
That's great news...
Now it needs to work on the update bug that seems to have surfaced. Updates show under individual game management overviews, but then when you go to check updates they're not there until you restart the console. Similarly, I find I have to manually search for updates and add them to the queue, otherwise they just stack there, whilst others just automatically get picked up. I've got the setting checked and everything is correct, but I had issues on the Xbox One too. Anyone else having this issue?
@Enigk I've been playing Alan Wake and it seems to work fine. Depends on the title, I guess.
Quick resume causes audio issues for me. The sound will either drop completely or only speech will work or sometimes only background music. Its happened to me on several titles including Jedi: FO and Control. Sometimes I can simply open the home menu and the audio will come back, or it will come back partially, but this glitch only happens when I use quick resume, so I've pretty much stopped using it at this point.
@XBontendo I must have picked the wrong few games to try. May have to try a few more. Alan Wake is an amazing game. So long since I played it.
It’s worked for AC Valhalla, fight night and a few other games for me every time with no problem on my S.
@Enigk or I picked the right one
Who knows, the night is young
