Microsoft boasts its Xbox One X is the most powerful console ever released, with increased framerates, quicker load times, and 4K resolution.
Microsoft finally unveiled its high-powered version of the Xbox One, officially called the Xbox One X, at E3 2017. With the increase in power, Microsoft announced that a number of games would be “enhanced” by the console — specifically, with 4K resolution.
Many Xbox One X enhanced games come with other clear upgrades, as well. Players with 1080p-resolution screens get supersampling on all games, which means the 4K games will still look better on your 1080p HDTV, even if it doesn’ t support 4K. Enhanced games also feature faster load times and better framerates all around, which is something that should alleviate a few of the longstanding criticisms of the Xbox One.
At E3 2017, Microsoft announced a decent chunk of the slate of enhanced games coming to Xbox One X, with a few featured on its website. Microsoft said the list of enhanced games includes around 30 third-party titles, plus more from Microsoft’s first-party studios. It covers games that have already been released, like Forza Motorsport 3, Resident Evil 7 and Titanfall 2, as well as upcoming games like Sea of Thieves, Madden NFL 18 and Assassin’s Creed Origins. You’ ll just need to be the owner of a 4K TV to take advantage of all that power.
Here’s the complete rundown of every game you can expect to play in 4K when the Xbox One X hits the market in November:
