Legion Go systems joins MSI and ASUS with Xbox Full Screen Experience


Legion Go update enables Xbox Full Screen Experience

Legion Space version 1.3.4.9 is rolling out with Windows Full Screen Experience (FSE) compatibility, bringing new shortcuts and UI hooks for Lenovo’s handheld lineup. The update supports Legion Go (8APU1), Legion Go S (8ARP1 and 8APU1), and two Legion Go 2 variants (8AHP2 and 8ASP2).

The headline change is FSE support, but it is not enabled by default. Users still need to turn on Windows FSE manually. Once enabled, Legion Space adds a Toggle FSE shortcut that mirrors Win+F11, and it also introduces a Quick Settings entry tied to the new full-screen flow.

Lenovo also remapped controller shortcuts. A long press on Legion R now acts like Win+Tab for Task View, while a short press opens the Legion Space OEM widget. Alongside that, Lenovo added a notification that flags FSE availability, with an option to disable it later.

Under the hood, Legion Space sets the Device Form registry value to “Handheld,” and it adds the Legion Space widget app, placing it first in the OEM Game Bar list. Lenovo also says update downloads are faster, which should reduce the wait time when new Legion Space builds are pushed out.

From what I read, not all users got the update yet, so give it a time because Lenovo is rolling this udpate in waves.
