4k Update for Enhanced Games?

UsersRDum · Nov 7, 2017

How do I know or check to see if an Enhanced game has the 4K textures or enhancements downloaded for it?

4k updates how to do them?

Hi,

If you have an Xbox One X, 4K game updates will happen automatically. If you have the console set to Instant on, these updates probably occurred when you were not using your console. With regards to update size, this depends whether the developer has included
4K assets - i.e. new high resolution textures. Not all games have been enhanced in this way. Assassins Creed has been enhanced with 4K resolution support, but this includes very little, if any, other enhancements, hence the small update size.

In your My Games and Apps there are drop downs to show Xbox One games and Xbox One Enhanced games. If your game is in the 'Enhanced' category, it has been updated for Xbox One X, regardless of the update size.

Title update today? Patch Notes? 12/6/2017

Hi!

Most likely it was an update for the "Xbox One X Enhanced" feature with better 4K resolution and HDR support. Many titles are having this update.

In your games and apps there's an option to filter what types of games you're viewing (all, Xbox One, One and 360, etc.). There's an option to view Enhanced games. Choose that option (it'll be on the top right of your screen) and it'll show any games you
have that have received the update.

Once your Xbox is in 4K mode (Settings, under Video; you may need to go into Advanced Settings), when you launch a game, assuming you have internet connected, you will get a prompt that the game needs an update.

I had to launch each game individually for each game to update for some reason. Not sure why it didn't try to update them knowing it's a Scorpio. If it launches with no prompt, you have any possible 4k update.

Hello Serbian,

With the Enhanced games have you installed the update that is for the 4k content for these games? Personally on my console (even though it not 4k TV) it installed the enhanced update.

Thanks,

Brad

Bear in mind that not all Enhanced games will require big download patches. Quite a few games will just be software patched to allow them to run in 4K, or near 4K resolution. A 4K enhancement doesn't always mean the game has to have 4k textures included
as standard.

I mean I can play some of my PC games in 4K - I just change the screen resolution. Games look sharper and nicer, but the game download size remains the same. Xbox One X is obviously different, and all Enhanced games will require an update, but don't worry,
they won't all be big updates.
