Microsoft Xbox One Update: Xbox One was introduced, but with a new bug. It is the possibility of being presented with a black screen after turning the console on. According to IGN, the problem seems to affect only a few users, but is widespread enough to have warranted a few Xbox Forum threads. Microsoft is aware of it and is currently giving a quick fix while working on a more permanent solution.

In a statement to Kotaku, Microsoft said, "We are aware of the issue and are working on a resolution. This does not appear to be widespread, but can be addressed by the player by holding the Xbox One power button on the console for 10 seconds to restart."

According to Gamespot, for some users, the Xbox One black screen interrupted their Titanfall beta gameplay sessions. Though inconvenient, the issue does not appear to be in a large scale spread or significantly damaging.

The February Xbox One update was out last February 15. It included a battery power indicator and USB Keyboard support while also improving on storage space management. The next major Xbox One update will be on March, a week ahead of the Titanfall launch.

IGN reported that Respawn has broadcasted that Titanfall will hit Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC on March 11, 2014 in North America and March 13, 2014 in Europe and Australia. They also revealed the Titanfall Collector's Edition, which will be available for $249.99 and comprises "an exclusive collectible 18-inch hand-crafted titan statue with diorama and battery-powered LED lighting, a full-size art book featuring more than 190 pages of rare concept art, and an exclusive full-size schematic poster of the Atlas titan."
