Xbox One: Save games in the cloud
The XBox One was criticized in advance for its online functions. If you want to save saves, the cloud is very helpful. Because it allows you to continue your games seamlessly with friends when you log in to their console. How does that work on the XBox 360, which is still relatively cumbersome cloud storage on the XBox One? The answer is simple: automatic.
How do you save your scores in the XBox Cloud?
The XBox One does this automatically: It saves your scores both locally on the console hard drive and virtually in the cloud. No extra setting is required, as was the case with the XBox 360.
- Since the cloud is online storage, an internet connection must be available when playing.
Is a paid XBox Live Gold membership required to store in the cloud?
No! Every XBox-One owner automatically receives this feature. Additional payments are not required.
It is not only practical for visiting friends, it is also possible to use your savegames on third-party devices. For example, on vacation you can simply borrow a console for a day and continue playing seamlessly without having to carry the heavy device with you. Or your XBox One breaks - no problem. Scores are not lost thanks to the automatic double online and offline storage.
