Xbox One manager Jeff Henshaw said: "Microsoft has hundreds of thousands of servers and dozens of data centers geographically distributed all around the planet, and Xbox One has the ability to instantly tap in to that limitless computational horsepower."
With the additional power that can be gained from cloud computing, the Xbox One was able to increase the number of asteroids to a staggering 330,000.
Mr Henshaw added: "We have about 500,000 updates per second coming from our global computing cloud down to this Xbox One so it can all be managed completely seamlessly.
"The beautiful thing that's happening here is we are seamlessly blending Xbox One's incredible processing power with the limitless processing power of the cloud."
