Xbox series x flickers when playing games only

Hi, this seems to be happening on a lot of xbox one games when played on xbox series x. Nobody else seems to be noticing these issues and I don't know who I could even tell. If you can, try Modern Warfare, the Division, Dead rising 3 and 4. All these games have lighting issues when played on the Series X.

Basically any street lights that have that 'orb' effect to them flicker and pixelate. Wolfenstein 2 and Youngblood also have this effect you showed in the video at various parts I've noticed. Definitely the Series X doing this as they're all fine when played on an Xbox One X.

Let me know if you could inform anyone about this issue or if you've noticed anything similar.

I have exactly the same issue today with the Xbox Series X but not the S.

"issue with flickering pixels that only happen on the menus of the console, but not in game"

tried multiple displays and multiples HDMI cable.

Do you have any news update?

Because on my Xbox series x, it only shows 'Optimized for series x/s' but if a xbox series x version of a game is NOT 'optimized' how would i know if I'm playing a series x/s version of a game?

The games on the SSD will run fine on it. You won't need to move them to the Xbox Series X storage to play them. Only the Xbox Series X games & games optimized for Series X will need to be played on the consoles own storage.

Hi,

I did all the 4 fixes mentioned before i made this post. If it makes any difference this only happens when playing SERIES X/SERIES X Enhanced games. If I play a XBOX ONE or XBOX 360 game it will remain on without an issue
