Xbox has announced a new strike-based program to decrease bad behavior on the platform.
In a new Xbox Wire blog post, Xbox CVP of Player Services Dave McCarthy detailed the new program. Players found violating Xbox's community standards will receive a strike, which will stay on your record for six months before it is removed.
The severity of the violation determines the number of strikes and the length of the punishment, as shown in the illustration below. If a player receives eight total strikes, their account will be suspended from using Xbox's social features like party chat and online multiplayer for one year. However, single-player experiences will remain unaffected, and no purchased content will be stripped from suspended players.
In an effort to provide transparency and educate players on what behavior is deemed inappropriate, Microsoft will show players their enforcement history, which lets them see how many current strikes they have, in addition to any active, completed, or expired suspensions issued.
"We are constantly improving our safety measures and bringing more systems and tools in place that empower players to respectfully interact with one another – because everyone deserves a place to comfortably be themselves online, free from harassment and bullying," McCarthy explained.
Xbox's new Enforcement Strike System is Microsoft's latest attempt to curb bad behavior on its platform. The company's previous efforts include a safety feature released last month that lets players clip audio and report inappropriate voice chats easily.
All Xbox players start with a clean, strikeless slate. However, any previous enforcements or suspensions issued will not be absolved.
