The Xbox Series S does not take advantage of the Xbox One X enhancements that are applied to older Xbox and Xbox 360 titles.<\/p>\n
When Microsoft revealed the Xbox Series S last week, the console manufacturer compared the console to the Xbox One.\u00a0The Series S is four times as strong as that game console.\u00a0It is striking here that no comparison with the Xbox One X is made.\u00a0That console can, for example, improve games from the backward compatible catalog with all kinds of modern techniques, but the Series S cannot, despite the fact that it is a true\u00a0next-gen console<\/em>\u00a0.<\/p>\n A Microsoft representative has confirmed this to game website\u00a0Gamespew<\/em><\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0When you play an Xbox or Xbox 360 title on the Xbox Series S, you will have to deal with the improvements that an Xbox One S would also make.\u00a0You get access to auto HDR, faster load times, more consistent frame rates and improved texture filtering.<\/p>\n To deliver the highest quality backwards compatible experience consistent with the developer’s original intent, the 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.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In practice, this means that you cannot play a game like Red Dead Redemption (released on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3) in 4k on an Xbox Series S, while you can on an Xbox One X and Xbox Series X. The website\u00a0Digital Foundry<\/em>\u00a0reports that this may have to do with the fact that there is less RAM.\u00a0The Series S has 8 GB of usable RAM, while the One X has 9 GB.\u00a0As a result, Microsoft cannot guarantee the same experiences.<\/p>\n It is true that older games look better on a Series S than on a One S, but that is something you can at least expect from a console with backward compatibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Xbox Series S does not take advantage of the Xbox One X enhancements that are applied to older Xbox and Xbox 360 titles.
