I started Darksiders: Wamastered Edition over the weekend. I am loving that 4K 60fps! It's been 9 years or since I played Darksiders (at launch), so it's nice to get a refresher. It's still a great game that holds up well, imo.

Darksiders 2 will follow, once I beat the original. Now that game I've never played. Is it 60fps, as well?

I assume both of these are 60fps on base console, as well?

DARKSIDERS 2 is 2160p at 30 fps on Xbox One X. D1 is 60 fps on base Xbox, while D2 is 30.

Unexpected, but I can live with 30fps. If Darksiders 2 is anything like Darksiders, then I'm sure I'm going to have a blast and marvel at how great the game looks in 4K.

It does look better than D1, both from an artistic and technological pov. I I played the enhanced version of D2 when I had a PS4 Pro and it didn't perform well on plenty of occassions.

I knew it! When I fired that game up last week and saw the aliasing and noticed it really wasn't all that crisp. No plans at all for a X patch either?

This is why I'm so glad MS is sticking with ONE console next gen, no more of these patches that are needed for the more "premium" system.

I'm referring to parity with the PlayStation 4 Pro. The decision to develop only for the common denominator and then port it over isn't a decision I like. Beenox have their reasons, of course, so all I can do is grumble about it.

Youngblood may offer more improvements than resolution alone (or may not), but 4K is the only information I could find with confidence. I've updated the OP with the following:

Pawarumi
2160p​
Redeemer - Enhanced Edition
2160p​
Wolfenstein: Youngblood
2160p​

Missing Borderlands: Handsome Jack Collection. I believe it is 4k, 60 fps, but I cannot confirm and am not sure if it is dynamic resolution. From playing it a bunch, it definitely doesn't hold the 60 fps and, with some weapon effects while zooming, the frame rate tanks. Some people have claimed it runs worse than pre-patch, on the Xbox One X.

It's there, but under "The Handsome Collection." Which, in hindsight, is not the best label. I've changed it to "Borderlands: The Handsome Collection." I've also included your framerate drop observation.

I'm playing through Darksiders 2 right now and it, too, can drop framerate some times. I've updated its record to indicate that, as well.

I have made the following changes to the OP:

The Division 2
2160p
HDR
VRR
Pks1.png

The Handsome Collection
Borderlands 2: 2160p
Increased texture resolution, character, weapon and vehicle models, improved AA, increased shadow resolution, cinematics re-encoded.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel: 2160p
Same as Borderlands 2.
HDR
Warface
2160p
HDR

Thanks, you're always so quick on finding news like this.


The Division 2 does, indeed, have Dolby Atmos support. Thanks for bringing that to my attention; I don't know how I missed that, but I am super stoked that there's one more Atmos title out there.

Is A Plague Tale: Innocence 1440P or 2160P? One site says it uses a reconstruction technique but DF mentioned 1440P...
EDIT: OK, it appears its using 1440P and some form of upscaling.

I'm still surprised that GTA V has not been enhanced, yet. Even if there focused on a new game or the online, setting the game to 1080p and unlocking the Xbox One X capability would be nice. They have updated a lot of the iOS games, in the past year or so.

Darksiders 2, I'd say, is mostly stable at 30fps and I have not encountered screen-tearing. Screen-tearing is the biggest offender for me and it drives me crazy, so I can confidently say it is not in the X1X version.

Now Darksiders 2 does drop frame rate at times, but it's not often. One time I had it drop into the teens (my guess) and it made no sense where I was at in the game, but once I closed an app that was asleep the game returned to normal. So, keep that in mind.

All in all, I am really impressed how clean the game looks and the art style never gets old. Yeah, I'd rather it be 4K/60fps like Darksiders 1 is (made even more jarring that I played through Darksiders 1 again before jumping to 2), but I am enjoying myself nonetheless,

It's not shown as X enhanced, but it does run at full 4K. John tweeted about it, and I tried it myself, and he's right. It looks fantastic.

Had a brief moment of excitement when I saw an update for Alan Wake, even though the Xbox one X enhanced patches have been out on hiatus. Hoping against hope itself....

Sadly it wasn't an X patch

I just loaded up Outer Wilds on an Xbox One X in 4K. Severe frame rate issues now (I'll try to upload a clip) and no apparent way to adjust resolution in game.

PLEASE JUST GIVE US A 1080p MODE WITH UNLOCKED FRAMERATE

Dragon Age: Inquisition received a small patch recently. No idea what it does but it's not an enhancement update unfortunately.

Uh. Never had any fps problem with it. Maybe you have the shadow toggle setting at the max resolution? It's the only way to have unstable fps on Pro. Otherwise game is practically 30fps locked on my console. don't think there is an update on the X. In any case this game still runs 1080p with Pro patch.

Hmm maybe I do have that selected I honestly have no idea, but I will check it out thanks!
I just realized I also own this on Steam so I wonder if I can getting it running well on there? I May try it :)

It's cool that they did it, but those drops are bad. Picked it back up last night and several areas I explored had to be in the low teens.

I don't get it this obession to push the X to the max resolution possible. Too many games did this, the last two TR, Evil Within, Hitman at the fps cost. I think a lower resolution with more stable fps is the best compromise. I don't know why some developers prioritize higher res to the fps stability. Not make sense considered the high pixel density beyond 1440p. Though would be interesting if DF put some light in such stuff just to understand if there were better alternative.

What I don't get about it is what standards for testing these changes go through at a studio level. Just flying from planet to planet would have demonstrated the performance impact, and generally, I was under the impression that that the industry as a whole was standardized around at least the idea of 30 stable fps (Not to say there aren't exceptions obviously). It just seems like someone should have looked at this, and the other games you listed and said, "Hey, this isn't good enough, let's work on this." As far as I know, there's no mandate for these patches, so why put them out in a half-baked state?
