Today, in addition to State of Decay we also have some exciting news to share about flighting additional Windows Gaming features.

To get everything this ring has to offer, we would recommend that you are on Windows 10 version 18329 or higher. But there is something even for those of you who are on older versions of Windows 10 (17763).  

REMINDER: BattlEye software (used by Fortnite, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and other popular games) does not work correctly with builds flighted to the Windows Insider Fast ring since December. If you have a machine that is not already enrolled in Windows Insider Fast, and you play games that use BattlEye software, we recommend you do not join Windows Insider Fast on that personal computer. We are working closely with BattlEye and individual games are being updated with new BattlEye software to make sure they work properly with new Windows builds. 

Here is a quick overview of the instructions to join the ring: 

  1. If you have an Xbox Live Gamertag (you most likely have one already if you are reading this!), go to step 2 below. If you don’t have a Gamertag, use your Microsoft Account (MSA) to log into https://account.xbox.com and create an Xbox account. Once completed, you will see your Gamertag in the top right of the page.   
  2. Install the Xbox Insider Hub app on the PC you’ll be flighting on (link opens in Store app).   
  3. Sign in to the Xbox Insider Hub with your Gamertag.   
  4. Select Insider Content in the upper left 
  5. Select Windows Gaming 
  6. If you are on 18329 or higher, you will be automatically enrolled into Game bar. You can then manually enroll into the flight for State of Decay: Year One  
  7. If you are on 17763, you will be automatically enrolled only into the Game bar flight  

For details on how to get the latest version of Windows, scroll down to the bottom of this post. Now, the fun part!
