Here are the specific details in regards to the improvements that have been made for the Sonic Generations Xbox Series X upgrade. It features Auto HDR support with a 4k resolution at 60fps. This was achieved with a FPS Boost that increased the frame rate from 30fps to 60fps.

It should smoothly hit these targets with the extra power that is present. It is worth nothing that most games do receive a standard 16x anisotropic filtering through Xbox Backwards Compatibility.

Those are the key details that are present. This game is not Optimized on the platform, meaning it wasn’t specifically adjusted for the platform and instead received these upgrades through either inheriting it from the previous generation or automatically. A video showcasing this is found below, alongside a photo representing the game.

Description/Synopsis
This is a celebration of the history of Sonic games featuring a combination of both 2D and 3D environments. It’s a perfect combination providing so many iconic locations and allowing you to visit them in either of the perspectives with characters that actually match the option you’ve chosen.

The well known music is all here and it’s a blazing fast, beautiful looking game that delivers one of the best takes on the characters in ever so many years. It’s fast paced, smooth and very exciting to whip through. Become the blue blur and actually have a good time in the process of doing so which is rather thrilling for sure.

Hopefully you found these details helpful in regards to understanding how this game is running on the platform. Whether that’s in the boosted resolution (visual fidelity) that’s provided in the filtering, or just generally the extra performance that assists with the Sonic Generations frame rate to keep it running smoothly.

Certainly great to see what these games can provide on the latest console platform that features full backwards compatible support and will see many new titles release over its lifespan. It should be exciting to see what’s to come for the consoles and how much gaming will change over this generation.
