List of Xbox games that support Auto HDR

Deleted member 29599 · Nov 11, 2020

I'm interested in what those really old games likes Sonic the Hedgehog 3 or Doom 1/2 look like in Auto HDR. Anyone tried these? I'm talking not just games from a previous gen but full on sprite era games that you wouldn't think could be rejigged with HDR. Obviously can't post useful screenshots or anything but i'd be curious to hear from someone who's tried it if it's actually any good or not.

Little disappointed that both the first Splinter Cell and Assassins creed don't support it.

Just as weird Rayman Origins does not support HDR, but Rayman Legends has all the level from Origins and does support HDR

Derachi · Nov 11, 2020

Does Yakuza 0 support it?

dedge · Nov 11, 2020

Batman Arkham Origins supports Auto HDR I was able to personally test it

I think Jeff Grubb had a video that showed it with it but I can't personally confirm.

RIP, OP. 😜 I have 755 entries in the X Enhanced thread and that's only Xbox games that have programmed enhancements. Life would suck real hard if I had to start from ground zero today.

Thanks for doing this, though! It fills a void my thread has; I'll be certain to link to your thread in my OP.

Hotline Miami Collection supports Auto HDR, witnessed by me. HDR makes the game a bit eye-searing, but in the best of ways! Auto-HDR is such an impressive feature.

Yeah there seem to be a lot of these cases where one game supports it and you would assume the sequel/prequel or similar game in the series doesn't. I wonder if it's because they've only turned auto HDR on for games they have tested? From what i can gather getting the entire XB1 catalogue BC really came down to the wire with games being added to the whitelist right up until release so perhaps they haven't had the chance to do this same kind of extensive testing for Auto HDR. Really weird otherwise. I can't imagine Rayman Origins does anything radically different from Rayman Legends in terms of something that could break Auto HDR.

SilverX · Nov 11, 2020

Add KH3 to the list

Oozer · Nov 11, 2020

Mirror's Edge Catalyst works with it.

Ahh, yes this info would be the perfect supplement to your thread! For the time being I'll keep updating this thread. Once you've updated your own thread, please let us know!

Any game that seems to use that weird wrapper to get mobile games running seems to be exempt from the HDR kicking in. All of the Kemco games, Legrand Legacy, Stay Cool Kobayashi san, Minecraft, TimeSpinner, Final Fantasy IX, and both Romancing Saga Games.

Basically if it asks you for permision to acces your Xbox Account on start up it doesn't get auto HDR.

Also when I loaded up my acount on the series X and had my external plugged in the system uninstalled those exact games. I had to redownload all of them so there may be other issues involved with them.

nogoodnamesleft · Nov 11, 2020

Ff13 looks gorgeous with auto hdr

PumpkinPieAddict · Nov 11, 2020

Can also confirm on FF8 (via gamepass) HDR does appear to be working. Wild.

DJ Lushious · Nov 11, 2020

Prey, Prey: Mooncrash, and The Council support Auto-HDR.

Powerofthecloud · Nov 11, 2020

Destiny has it

Nice work on the research. I'll add everything to the list later tonight / tomorrow. I might need to double check with you in regard to "all Kemco games".

Ohhh, I've been procrastinating on FF8. Ah well, I have quite a backlog anyway.

I plan on buying the trilogy again once it's on sale on the store, I'm glad it looks good!

Was really hoping for Ninja Gaiden Black; hopefully that eventually makes it.

I plan to go through my library extensively tomorrow to verify everything is up and running now that I have everything moved over. My library is insane due to sales and sharing my account with a household of 8 people. I'll be sure to note which games do and don't load as i muck around.

for now here's a list of what I know won't work with HDR added to what I previously listed.

Kemco RPGs - Asdivine Hearts, Asdivine Hearts 2, Asdivine Kamura, Asdivine Menace, Asdivine Dios, Chronus Arc, Fernz Gate, Bonds of the Sky, Frane - Dragon's Odyssey, Legend of the Tetrarchs, Revenant Saga, Revenant Dogma, Sephirothic Stories, Alvastia Chronicles, Crystal Ortha, Dragon lapis, Liege Dragon, Alphadia Genesis, Miden Tower, Monster Viator, Dragon Sinker - Descendants of Legend, Seek Hearts, Wizards of Brandel, Monochrome Order, Illusion of L'Phalcia, Antiquia Lost, Marenian Tavern Story - Patty and the Hungry God

DragonFangZ - The Rose and Dungeon of Time, I Am The Hero, SubaraCity, Spider Solitaire F, Double Dragon IV, and SNK 40th Anniversary Collection also don't get Auto HDR.

Anyone try DS (Dark Souls) 1 Remastered
or DS3?

Community Forum · Nov 11, 2020

Xbox 360

Lost Odyssey does support Auto HDR.

Blue Dragon does not support Auto HDR.

Downloaded and quickly tested both tonight.

The Pet of the Month · Nov 11, 2020

Yo FF13 has HDR? Time for a replay.

For real, Kameo would look incredible with HDR.

I don't have an HDR TV (yet) but fired up Kameo on the Series X and was amazed at how well the game holds up for being a 2005 launch title.

Kameo is super underrated visuals wise, it came out during the time where a games graphics wasn't considered good unless it was brown & bloom with bald space marines.

Deleted member 3203 · Nov 11, 2020

Playing Bad Company 2 right now with Auto HDR, which I'm running off my external hard drive that was plug and play.

This is an amazing experience.

LanceX2 · Nov 11, 2020

Sec0nd · Nov 12, 2020

Extreme bummer that Splinter Cell doesnt support it. I tried it yesterday as well. Oh well, game still looks great regardless. And happy to see that other SC do support auto HDR.

Terbinator · Nov 12, 2020

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare - Supports it.

Reven Wolf · Nov 12, 2020

I think Jade Empire has HDR?

I'll check later but I thought it might?

Tap In · Nov 12, 2020

Not sprite-based but Conker's Bad Fur Day in Rare Replay supports it. It's mostly pretty muted but all the speech bubbles are blazing bright white. Looks fairly terrible IMHO.

Ace Combat 7 does have Auto HDR.

Currently on GamePass.

Undermine(One) - yes

Outlast(One) - no

crazillo · Nov 12, 2020

Gonna fire up Rare classics, Final Fantasy XIII and Lost Odyssey at some point then. Sad Blue Dragon and Kameo didn't make it. What about Skyrim?

Nacery · Nov 12, 2020

Weird that Chaos Theory supports AutoHDR but OG Double Agen't doesn't

Dark Souls 3 works great with Auto HDR. Just a shame about the 900p 30fps.

Outer Wilds also works by the way.

I think with Sonic 3 after a few levels it looks really good. The colors look great and you see some HDR highlights throughout (items, attacks, certain enemies, sections of the background) but nothing looks blown out or anything.

Will definitely be doing a full playthrough soon.

That's odd, I just double checked. HDR didn't kick in again. Can you confirm one more time that it works on your end?

Just to confirm: That includes Outbreak, Outbreak: The New Nightmare, and Outbreak: The Nightmare Chronicles?

Thanks, I'll add it to the list.

My full list of titles on Xbox One (fully playable on XSX/XSS BC with HDR, improved framerates, load times, etc...) are Outbreak, Outbreak: The New Nightmare, Outbreak: The Nightmare Chronicles, Outbreak: Lost Hope and Outbreak: Epidemic.

I'm working on native next gen versions with numerous improvements (framerate, resolution, graphics quality, camera rendering range, etc...) but they're not available yet and won't be for a bit. That being said, the games in BC really shine now - especially the splitscreen co-op which runs at 60FPS pretty much 99%+ of the time in my current testing.

It's really crazy when I think about how titles like The New Nightmare launched on X1 in January 2018 to playing them now on XSX. It's like a completely different game...

All Original Xbox games like Jade Empire are given a resolution increase, but widescreen will only be there if the original release supported it.
