97 games now support FPS Boost on Xbox

That's only the case with games where it's not on by default.
You'd think so, but then again I'm not that interested in playing old stuff at 900p and medium/low settings. The real test will be for the games that get the boost and run at 1440p-4K.
True enough. The Shadow of the TR videos that have been posted earlier in the topic seemed pretty good running in the "Resolution mode"
Yeah, I have a strong feeling they're gonna try to get all of the games that work with their method to get boosted, and then just continuously update those games every gen
Nope, Rise of the Tomb Raider isn't in the program yet, hopefully it gets added in the next batch or something
Yeah, Mad Max going from 30fps to 120fps is fucking insane and it's gonna be really great to see how this evolves in the future
Hmmm to play Yakuza 6 on playstation to keep the trophies together or to take advantage of fps boost...
great job microsoft! Appreciate the effort definitely. I've been playing prey and I can't imagine how sluggish it must have been on the original hardware

It's all serverside, no need to download anything as the game code doesn't change 👍 If you don't see FPS Boost for HK, restart your console and restart the game.
Damn, that's impressive. Might have to consider rebuying the Far Cry games on Xbox next time I want to replay rather than my PS4 versions.
Some posts about the Series S getting shafted here, but I don't see it that way. Most of the games on that list can do 60fps on Series S, and some even 120fps. I assume that's at ~1080p which was the main target res for Series S. That's pretty awesome. Still very happy with my Series S purchase.

So for gears 4, when fps boost mode is on you loose all the one x enhanced features?
Update: just tried Gears 4 with fps boost off, the game now flip back one x enhanced features for 4k 30fps or 1080p 60fps which is pretty much locked 60fps running on xbsx. The fps boost mode is actually downgrade forcing the game to run in one s mode only.

Seen this post then booted up unity to no auto HDR was a little disappointed but the 60 FPS is really nice .
Yeah just 7 games which don't achieve 60 fps on Series S, I ignore the games which can't achieve 120 fps because my TV can't handle higher framerate. I wonder what happen with those 7 games, specially Life is strange 2.

Yakuza 6 and Anthem might really shine at 60fps! Does the resolution take a big hit, or a negligible one?
Decided to visit Odyssey to finish dlc and agreed, it would have been nice. Always been on console and used to 30 fps. But after so much 60, it takes the eyes a bit to adjust back down.
Played Anthem. I think the 60 FPS is worth it with the Res drop. You see it right away but still looks fine.
Probably already posted multiple times but I didn't realize ac unity was on sale for 9.99 if you have gold until now.

" Xbox One uses a dynamic resolution with the lowest resolution found being 960x1080 and the highest resolution found being 1440x1080. "
I think from memory the One X version has a 60fps performance mode so if it's not 60fps already I'm sure it's possible
Same lol.
But since it seems like every Ubisoft game under the sun is getting it, I'm certain they'll be in the next batch.
People have been posting this for $2.79, actually

You might wanna reboot or something. Just played Unity and auto-HDR is definitely on. On another note; Shadow of TR is mind-blowing, gonna do a new game+ run.
Forgot to update my post, for some reason my series X was detecting my TV as HDR comparable. Hard reboot did the trick.
I naturally went for the most adrenaline pumping title on the list and played Halo Wars 2. It's surprising how much even an RTS benefits from the enhanced frame rate. It looks so smooth to me now.
FPS boost. Are trophies really going to impact your playthrough enough to warrant the game playing that much worse? And unless you are playing it on the PS5 (the only PS platform where performance is a solid 30) you are gonna have "fun" - and by fun I mean FPS drops (even on the PS4 Pro) and on the base PS4 its a fucking mess with tons of screen tearing.
I've only played the opening boss battle again on the Series X to test the boost, but its just so much better. Kinda miffed I replayed the game on my PS5 a few months back when I could have either played it here, or modded on the PC (for the best experience - putting all that music back into the game)
The game is below 1080p right?
If they also updated the res it would be awesome, the game is great.
1080p'ish.
Digital Foundry: "1536x1080, with both seemingly using a variant of SMAA T2X anti-aliasing."
I have both the Xbox & PS4 versions and can hardly tell the difference honestly although there's a slim possibility it might have gotten some full 1080p update since Digital Foundry did their pixel counts.
The FPS boost is amazing with some spectacular results for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, Mad Max, Dying Light & more. The only real bummer out of these is Gears 4 since the FPS boost disables the 4K mode. Only other way it can get 4K 60fps is if Coalition did a title update to have that mode or the FPS boost disabled the lower settings.
Yeah, you're dropping to the resolution it runs at on the Xbox One S, which is indeed 900p.
If you're playing on Series X, then that's exactly what it does.
The games with FPS Boost "Off by default on Series X" run using the One S performance profile instead of their higher-res One X iterations.
I want to play this game, but i don't really like to play multiplayer. Can you play alone?
Yeah, there is a whole campaign of missions.
Occasionally you might have a random tag along, but there is no need to speak them them.
Ohhhhh. So it drops the resolution super low to sort of BRUTE FORCE the fps since the game isn't actually optimized for that framerate. Damn it's such a shame because I feel like Anthem could run at whatever 4k-ish resolution it's running at and 60fps. Just tried Battlefront 2 and same thing. I thought maybe I wouldn't notice but the shimmering is unmistakable. I'll take 4k/60 over 900-1080/120. It's cool for people who prefer 120 though.
Are there any games that hold their 4k resolution while pushing the framerate higher?
WTH. Now I'm officially jealous of XBox SeX users.
Why can't Sony get this right? :/
Going above 30 feels right for any game, so you're wrong :D
Absolutely! Really nice game, you don't need to go online at all with others. Although missions are easier if you get a friend along. But I replayed it a year back on my own, no problem! Same with Division 2.
This!
Did any journalist posed this question to anyone from Sony leadership?
This is a fantastic move on behalf of Microsoft.
