Microsoft has just posted a brand new system software update for the Xbox 360 console, taking its dashboard version to 2.0.15574.0 and setting the stage for the array of features that will be released later this year.

Earlier this month, at E3 2012, Microsoft announced quite a lot of interesting features that would be launched for its Xbox 360 console.

Now, the company has just posted a brand new system update for the home console, taking its firmware up to version 2.0.15574.0.

The update brings a variety of “behind the scenes foundational improvements that will not be visually noticeable, but will help enable an easy update this Fall.”

Xbox 360 owners from Australia and New Zealand will also be able to use Bing voice search after installing this update.

You can automatically install the new Xbox 360 system software update 2.0.15574.0 right now if your console is connected to the Internet or by downloading it from Softpedia and then installing it via a USB stick or CD/DVD.
