If you've got fond memories of the Xbox 360 generation, and happen to be an "Alpha Skip Ahead Insider", you can now officially revert to your old gamerpic on Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S. The feature is rolling out first to Xbox Insiders, with everyone else said to be getting it "eventually" assuming it doesn't face any issues.
As explained by Xbox's Eden Marie, you'll need to navigate over to the "change gamerpic" screen to do this. This will only show up if you've had a Xbox 360 gamerpic in the past, and "you'll need to change your pic on Xbox 360 if you want to use others". In a nutshell, any future changes you make will carry across from your Xbox 360 console.
This follows on from a fix in August, which made Xbox 360 gamerpics larger on the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
Will you be reverting to your old Xbox 360 avatar on your new system? Leave a comment down below.

Really excellent work from MS, it's these little QOL updates that make old features carry forward a lovely little extra and they are real difference makers to users of your platform. Wonderful work.
@Clankylad I wear the same mask! Heh. Been thinking of updating my pic, but it's been on for so long…
Pretty sure mine should still be the Superman shield from Superman Returns. God, that came out in 2006!!!!!
Never changed mine. Jet Set Radio's Gum is a keeper!
More backwards compatible games would be better
Nintendo probably has zero people that are visibily speaking with their customers & working on the QoL they raise as concerns. Love Nintendo but wish they took a page from the Xbox book on this one.
that's great, because I changed it to a friggin banana avatar a while back and couldn't change back to my old one lol
An additional thought, I may go from my own custom modern Jetman pic to my XBOX 360 magenta spectrum pic, I'm sure thats what I left my my 360 set to, would be nice to see it again.
