Xbox Series X Enhanced Games - How do you take advantage of its capabilities? And a list of its performance and visual promotion

After Microsoft revealed its plan to reveal its device for the next generation under the name Xbox 20/20, it stated that games that will benefit from Xbox Series X technologies will get a logo that distinguishes them, which we see in the above image.

Games that bear the slogan "Optimized for Xbox Series X" will get various performance and graphics upgrades, which include games for the current generation that will support the new device or games developed specifically for the device. But the question remains for many, what does it mean to have an enhanced Xbox X game? What improvements will these games get?

Amazing optical resolution
Thanks to Xbox Series X hardware and amazing technologies like DirectX Raytracing, Microsoft promises us to get “Optimized for Xbox Series X” games that have more realistic and beautiful environments with amazing visual effects. You will enjoy the taste of light-tracking technology with true lighting effects and reflections that bring the scene closer to reality. Moreover, you are promised a true 4K experience while enjoying the game world.

Smoother next generation fees
Games optimized for the Xbox Series will take advantage of its power to deliver a seamless graphics experience that is better than before, as we are promised more stable and higher frame speeds of up to 120fps while playing.




Faster loading times and more vibrant worlds
The Velocity Architecture will allow the unlocking of new speed and greater performance capabilities by combining the hardware represented by the SSD and the central processor with a set of systems embedded in the device in order to give the developer the ability to offer the worlds rich and more dynamic and vibrant like we have not seen before players.

Thus, we will have the ability to reduce download times inside and outside the game, which means that players can now spend more time playing without wasting time waiting for the download screens.

This revolutionary design will allow developers to gain access to 100 GB of game assets in real time, and that allows them to offer worlds like Red Dead 2 worlds and Odyssey Odyssey more dynamically and in a larger way, and in doing so it needs greater processing speed and the ability to secure the flow of assets faster and this is what exactly secures in the new architecture .

Smart Delivery
One of the interesting features of the players is the Smart Delivery, a service that enables Xbox One game buyers to obtain a Series X edition for free.

Microsoft has promised to provide this feature with all first-party addresses and it has given third-party developers the ability to back them up with their games and they are free to decide. When you see the above logo on the cover of the game, such as Cyberbank 2077, know that by purchasing the current generation version, you will get the upgrade version of the Series X for free.

Games with the slogan "Optimized for Xbox Series X"
The presence of this logo on the cover of any game means that the developer made more effort to take advantage of the powerful capabilities of the device and present its games in the brightest way. But each game will improve its level of improvement from others according to the desire of the developer. Someone will give more priority to smooth graphics, such as racing and competitive games. And there are those who will sacrifice the smoothness of the graphics in order to give the game higher visual quality with more beautiful effects or for example a world rich in details with materials, which gives it more realism.

For example, we will find games that target 120 frames per second, such as racing and shooting games, such as Dirt 5 or Gears 5, while we will see a waiver from other games in terms of smoothness of graphics. Although this confused the players after receiving promises that the standard performance with the Xbox Series X is 4K / 60, Microsoft came back and made it clear that it leaves developers the option and will not force them to support the 60-frame, but the device can reach 120fps if the developer so desires.

Before I leave you with the schedule for the performance of the games announced today, we have to clarify that these games are still under development, so we hope that their developers will offer the Performance Mode feature as happened with the developed devices so that we choose between accuracy and smoothness as per our desire. Also, do not forget that these games are mostly a two-generation developer, and here the developer may find himself constrained by the capabilities of this generation as he has to adjust his game to more than one version.
