A new Xbox Game Pass membership tier? A console reservation system? Perhaps, something else we haven\u2019t seen posted on social media yet?<\/p>\n<p>So, to answer any questions and explain what exactly makes Xbox All Access the best way to get into gaming with Xbox, we\u2019ve put together an educational series titled, \u201cFiguring it Out.\u201d And like any world-class learning experience, it needs a world-class instructor. We\u2019re pleased to introduce you to Xbox All Access expert and instructor of the program, Andre Braugher (&#8220;Brooklyn Nine-Nine, &#8220;Homicide: Life of the Street,&#8221; &#8220;Men of a Certain Age&#8221;) \u2013 stoic, wise, sensible, and with a voice that\u2019ll lull your senses into a deeply agreeable and transient state.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/upgrading-is-now-in-session-with-xbox-all-access.jpg\" alt=\"Xbox All Access - Inline Image\" class=\"wp-image-165124\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Andre\u2019s core curriculum centers around three main video lessons\u2014money, time, and everything else\u2014but as a bonus, touches upon other areas of life as well. Andre\u2019s method of interactive instruction will be done with the aid of his trusty canine sidekick, Sterling the Corgi, and a series of gaming references from the iconic library of Xbox games and characters. By the end of the three lessons, we hope you leave fully understanding our simple logic behind Xbox All Access: Why be a single threat or a double threat when you can be a triple threat? (Once we\u2019ve figured out the quadruple threat, we\u2019ll do that, too.).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Upgrading to the next gen is now in session.
