FPS Boost in Five Bethesda Games - Improvements

In a message posted via Xbox Wire, the division has confirmed what we can expect from these improvements in the titles mentioned above. They point out that the rate of images per second will increase to 60 fps , although some visual concessions will be made to ensure a stable experience.

"At times, because the graphics requirements increase when enabling FPS Boost technology, we had to lower the resolution of the game to make sure it ran and played well," says Xbox. "In those select cases, such as Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, FPS Boost will not be automatically enabled for Xbox Series X players." We will know that a game has the function activated when we see the tab with the same name after pressing the guide button, next to auto HDR.
