Heres Every Xbox One X Enhanced Game So Far
Microsoft kicked off Xbox One X preorders at the annual Gamescom convention in Cologne, Germany on Sunday. But it also took the lid off a sweeping list of current and upcoming games designed to take advantage of the souped-up Xbox One's ability to render games more fluidly and at substantially higher resolutions. The company says over 100 titles will be enhanced when the Xbox One X launches for 499 on November 7. At the moment, the tally is notably higher than 100 and includes a vast range of acclaimed already-released games, like The Witcher 3, Diablo III, Resident Evil 7, Fallout 4, Dishonored 2 and Final Fantasy XV. A few of those have yet to receive enhancements on Sony's own 4K-angled PlayStation 4 Pro, which arrived last November with far fewer enhanced games, though developers have rushed to increase the number since. The Xbox One X is doubtless benefitting both from Sony getting the 4K train rolling and its own extra year in the oven. The Xbox One X is notably more powerful than Sony's PlayStation 4 Pro, capable of 6 teraflops of graphics performance versus the PS4 Pro's 4.2 teraflops and sporting 12 gigabytes of high speed memory versus the PS4 Pro's 8 gigabytes. It has a slightly faster custom 8-core processor, and includes a 4K UHD Blu-ray player, something Sony left out of the PlayStation 4 Pro on the assumption consumer preference has tilted toward streaming high-definition content. It will also play over 300 Xbox 360 games at launch, many of those tweaked to perform even better than on the standard Xbox One S. Here's the complete list of Xbox One X enhanced titles as of August 21, 2017.
