- A: AnswerUnfortunately, I think they jumped the gun on this. I too was looking forward to the updated box art but all that's available now is the standard Xbox One style. It's the same for other countries as well, so think that the updated box art is just not in production yet. Besides the Xbox Exclusives, other upcoming 3rd party games for are still displaying the older design as well.
