Xbox Series X: 20 Games Tested in 4K 60 FPS HDR

Xbox Series X: 20 Games Tested in 4K 60 FPS HDR

Watch on an HDR compatible device or screen if you can! With our early Xbox Series X preview, we wanted to show as many games as we can running on the system, so here’s a look at a bunch of titles in a 4K 60 FPS HDR video!

Note: Looks like I made a mistake during my research for this video, Red Dead 2 runs locked at 4k resolution on One X and did not make use of dynamic resolution scaling.

  3. Sanjith Ravikumar on May 11, 2022 at 7:51 pm

    When u realize u r watching it in 480p 😮



  4. dedo buho on May 11, 2022 at 7:56 pm

    How can i activate 60fps on control ultimate edition? My xbox series x only runs it at 30fps

    Question… I have the Series X and have a large amount of back-compat games on an external USB 3.0 HDD. Do the HDR, frame rate and resolution improvements not happen if I play them straight from the HDD? Do I have to move them to the internal SSD or the Seagate expansion card I bought? So far I’ve only put the games marked with the “Optimized for Series X/S” logo on the internal or expansion SSD drives and kept everything else on the external HDD. Also, should I upgrade my external HDD to one of the WD Black drives that is 3.2 or is that not necessary? I see online that it says “3.1 or faster” while the Xbox storage screen says “3.0 or faster”. Let me know if this isn’t correct.

  7. Daniel Fagyas on May 11, 2022 at 8:02 pm

    If this managed to upscale New Vegas, well thats just mind blowing!



  8. Firedude 1 on May 11, 2022 at 8:02 pm

    My s8+ keeps lagging when I set it to 720p 60 HDR or 1080p lol



  9. KingRenee on May 11, 2022 at 8:02 pm

    control @ 30 fps…



  10. Fred on May 11, 2022 at 8:03 pm

    Sunset Overdrive ?? It is with 30 fps locked on my Series X…



  11. katanga sr on May 11, 2022 at 8:05 pm

    Пиздёжь не верте у меня коробка x максимум 40 ФПС при 4к



  12. IcceLongboardTeam on May 11, 2022 at 8:05 pm

    red dead isn’t 60fps… it’s literally locked at 30fps. BS



  13. Calum Connor on May 11, 2022 at 8:05 pm

    Does red dead redemption 2 run at 30 fps or 60fps on the xbox series x



  14. Demetrius Johnson on May 11, 2022 at 8:07 pm

    So whenever I start a game with HDR my screen automatically gets dimmer. Is it best to leave it on that setting or should I put it on normal brightness?



  15. JRK on May 11, 2022 at 8:08 pm

    HDR existed at the hardware level since the mid-2000’s.



  16. Noobvoyage on May 11, 2022 at 8:08 pm

    That’s bullshit, Rise of the Tomb Raider is still at 30fps on 4k mode.



  17. Ramses JFG on May 11, 2022 at 8:09 pm

    9:10 What exactly is the improvement in Banjo-Kazooie? Is it supposed to look less colorful?



  18. Nomercy Play on May 11, 2022 at 8:11 pm

    Hey bro. Sorry for my English. I would like to ask about a device for recording a game from an XSX console. For my channel I use Avermedia LGP2 Plus, but I don’t like the quality, there are too many artifacts.
    Your video quality look awsome.
    Thanks in advance for your reply.



  19. Bugzy on May 11, 2022 at 8:14 pm

    Can it also be regular Xbox compatible games and Xbox one that are not Series X?



  20. Eric Bersan on May 11, 2022 at 8:15 pm

    What about series s? Also 60 fps in hd?



  21. Jkarl00 on May 11, 2022 at 8:16 pm

    No hdr out of 4k tho its such a beast why is it only on my 4k TV I get hdr but if I try it on a monitor with hdr that works with the ps4 or ps4 pro both with hdr at 1080p or higher but my xbox series x can’t that is kinda bs and kinda a deal breaker cus ps5 added it in for people it should not be disabled they really like screwing people over



  22. Hunter White on May 11, 2022 at 8:17 pm

    Assetto corsa is finally playable.xsx rules.



  23. fuoribondo on May 11, 2022 at 8:18 pm

    This is a great video but unfortunatelly, AC oddyssey does not run in 60 fps. Of course, this is a current situation but I doubt it will change in the future.



  24. 16's17's slept on on May 11, 2022 at 8:20 pm

    Hey can anyone tell me if 4k 60 hz or 1080 120hz… what’s better? My tv cant do 4k 120 but everything else checked off im 4k details



  25. s0ad29 on May 11, 2022 at 8:24 pm

    should a logo show/pop up when a game supports auto hdr or just hdr. I know my PS4 Pro does it but not on the series X.



  26. JJAZE on May 11, 2022 at 8:25 pm

    Im watching this on my 1080p 60 hdr phone damn this looks beautiful.



  27. Noob Gog on May 11, 2022 at 8:27 pm

    I don’t under stand why this video is playing max at 480p on my iphone x after you start playing the games . When I watch the same video on an android phone there is no such problem!!!😂



  28. mhunt on May 11, 2022 at 8:28 pm

    so what gives you the best game experience ? 4k at 60hz or 1080p at 120hz ? i am confused.



  29. 4str4l R0n1n on May 11, 2022 at 8:31 pm

    I tried battlefront 2 of and it was literally amazing.



  30. Kevin Kenson on May 11, 2022 at 8:31 pm

    Quick note on a mistake in the video! I erroneously mention RDR2 making use of Dynamic Resolution Scaling which is incorrect, the One X version also ran at a locked native 4K resolution. Line added to description as well. Thanks for watching the video everyone!



  31. Death Wish on May 11, 2022 at 8:31 pm

    is ac odyssey running at 60fps? I’ve been reading that it is locked at 30



  32. FredEFuego on May 11, 2022 at 8:32 pm

    This isn’t an HDR video at all. Watching on iPhone XS Max and has HDR but this video doesn’t. Just saying.



  33. Thepupps5 on May 11, 2022 at 8:33 pm

    u didnt talk about the res and fps in every game…



  34. Ashley Varone on May 11, 2022 at 8:33 pm

    Lite mode does not mean 4K hdr on ff xv



  35. Mobile Players on May 11, 2022 at 8:33 pm

    Bullcrap, these games are running on your PC ain’t Xbox series X. Always predictions.



  36. Jeffery on May 11, 2022 at 8:34 pm

    But would you trust this pc to not burn your house down?



  37. Wajang on May 11, 2022 at 8:35 pm

    Quantum break still runs not to great on the series x.



  38. DNA on May 11, 2022 at 8:35 pm

    Is it possible to play in 4K at 60fps from an external hard drive (not expansion card)?



  39. Justin W on May 11, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    This console has more teraflops than PS5



  40. Julien Marie on May 11, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    Origin est en 30 ou 60 fps ? Merci.



  41. Drummer 75 on May 11, 2022 at 8:38 pm

    Buying a new $500 dollar system to play old games on. Yeah hmm that makes sense. I grew having an Atari at 5, ever since then there were these things called "exclusives", to really show what the system could do, or how much fun it was. Boy I miss those days.



  42. D_Rock on May 11, 2022 at 8:38 pm

    AC Unity is actually playable at 60fps without the update patch that is and it runs well. Hopefully ubisoft releases an update for it soon for 60fps 4k. The game is clearly capable of it



  43. Triple Cheese on May 11, 2022 at 8:43 pm

    My Galaxy S9+ got 4k And HDR



  44. Filip laskovski on May 11, 2022 at 8:43 pm

    Sure 4k 60 but I bet textures would be medium to low 🤣🤣



  45. Dion Schardijn on May 11, 2022 at 8:43 pm

    60 fps is still shit….pc gamers are playing at least 120fps. Warzone is only game till now



  46. Luis Fernando De La Mora on May 11, 2022 at 8:44 pm

    Should i sell my tv with 4k and 60 hz and get a 1080 120 hz monitor??



  47. Leon Wolf on May 11, 2022 at 8:45 pm

    Most of this Games work with 30 fps.



  48. Seikomode on May 11, 2022 at 8:46 pm

    Is it 4k 60 locked? Or dynamic resolution at 60hz?



  49. Aashutosh goswami on May 11, 2022 at 8:46 pm

    I’m a ps fan but I gotta say that this is the reason I highly respect Xbox



  50. Augusto César on May 11, 2022 at 8:46 pm
