IGN’s Bo Moore spoke to Jason Ronald, one of Xbox Series X’s chief engineers, about the definition of the term, which you can see below:The post breaks down a number of benefits for optimized games, including ray tracing, a performance target of 60 frames per second at 4K resolution (rising to 120 FPS in some games), and ‘near-load’ times. removed. ‘
However, Jason Ronald makes it clear that this is not a “feature checklist” that must be adhered to in order to get an optimized badge. “We don’t dictate the design of the game,” he explained. The badge can be obtained, “as long as they’re designing the game and building it on the Xbox Series X development platform, and they really tailor it to take advantage of it.”
DiRT 5 will be one of the games capable of taking advantage of a 120 FPS frame rate, with David Springate of Codemasters making it clear that it includes an option to toggle between 60 and 120 frames per second (presumably with a loss of resolution at the highest Speed).
Meanwhile, the Call of the Sea adventure game will be able to support 4K resolution and ray tracing to help spice up your island. As mentioned previously, the SSD and Velocity architecture of the new console allow Gears 5 to load four times faster on X Series than on Xbox One.
