Asha Sharma, who was announced as the new head of Xbox last night, immediately engaged with the community on X (formerly Twitter). In a string of early interactions she referenced reviving the Xbox 360-era "Blades" interface, a comment that's attracted a lot of attention online.

  • Sharma responded directly to fans and Xbox accounts shortly after her appointment, signalling a hands-on, community-facing approach.
  • The reference is widely interpreted as a nod to the Xbox 360’s Blades dashboard from 2005, tapping into player nostalgia for the older UI.
  • Comments have generated buzz across social channels, though no formal plan or timeline for any dashboard return has been announced.
  • The suggestion raises the possibility Microsoft could explore UI revamps or offer nostalgic themes, but any change would require development and testing.
