澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series S won't run Xbox One X Eඣnhanced versions of backwards compatible games, but it will make its own improvements.

Details about Xbox Series S not running Xbox One X Enhanced games last week, and a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft s📖pokesperson offered thꦦe definitive word on how the console will handle Xbox One games soon after I asked for a statement.

“Xbox Series S was designed to be the most affordable next generation console and play next generation games at 1440P at 60fps. To deliver the highest quality backwards compatible experience consistent with the developer’s original intent, thꦇe Xbox Series S runs the Xbox One S version of backward compatible games while applying improved texture filtering, higher and more consistent frame rates, faster load times and Auto HDR.”

The most common feature of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox One X Enhanced games is an upgrade to 4K support. Since Microsoft is framing 4K support as the primary difference between 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X and Series S, it followꦆs that the latter console wou🌠ldn't make use of it.

Other Enhanced, uh, enhancements often include HDR support, smoother light and shadow effects, and better-looking textur✱es both close-up and from far distances. It sounds like Xbox Series S will be able to add many of the same improvements to Xbox One games through its improved specs, but the results may vary from game to game. 

So there we have it, another point for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Series X vs Xbox Series S discussion: if you're booting up an Xbox One game, the latter will not run the Xbox One X Enhanced version - bꦅut it will make some improvements of its own, with the exception of bumping up the resolution to 4K.
