Microsoft has offered to replace Xbox One consoles that are creating an unusual amount of noise.
The platform holder claims that the issue affects just a “small number of Xbox One owners”, and can be identified by a clicking noise coming directly from the console, as heard in the video below.
The issue has been reported by multiple people across Twitter, NeoGAF and Xbox.com, spawning the hashtag #XboxNoise.
“We have heard that a small number of Xbox One owners in some situations may hear a noise from the console that is too loud,” Microsoft told Kotaku.
“While this does not affect the safety or functionality of the system, we’re asking customers who believe they are experiencing this issue to contact Xbox Support: http://support.xbox.com. At the request of our customers, we are exchanging those consoles for new systems.”
The cause of the noise is not yet known.
