Here are the specific details in regards to the improvements that have been made for the Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Xbox Series X upgrade. It features Auto HDR support with a native 4k resolution at 60fps.

It should smoothly hit these targets with the extra power that is present. There is a dynamic 4k 60fps option too, but it’s not needed. 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 single player entry within the franchise that continues the events of the first game being a main secondary release. There was YoungBlood that followed afterwards. America, 1961. The Nazis maintain their stranglehold on the world.

You are BJ Blazkowicz, aka “Terror-Billy,” member of the Resistance, scourge of the terrible empire that reigns, and humanity’s last hope for liberty. Only you have the guts, guns, and gumption to return stateside, kill every foe in sight, and spark the second American Revolution.

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 Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus 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.

To summarize these were the details on if Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus can run on Xbox Series X/S console platforms. You can read a review of a related title below, or check out a game hub for further coverage as well. Don’t forget to check out the video content to see the game in action.
