Xbox One X will have around 70 Enhanced games for launch week, says Microsoft

according to Xbox senior director for console marketing Albert Penello, about 70 Xbox One X Enhanced games will be available within launch week.

[NewMonday]

not good, that's less than 30% of enhanced games on PS4Pro

[DiRtY]

In its first week, the PS4Pro had about 40 games enhanced.

@Dirty

Thanks for that.

@Iamtrum

So? Doesnt change the fact that the pro launched with 40 enhanced titles...just like the pro The list of enhanced titles on the 1X will also keep growing..just like you said "This is now"

[DiRtY]

@ImTrumPeach,

there are 150 games currently getting enhanced.
So, more than enough.

[DrumBeat]

Don't you know? You can't speak out against PlayStation here. Not even on minute levels. Even if you're 100% honest, you'll be disagreed to death and ostracized. This is a PlayStation fansite in everything but name.

[Highlife]

Oh hell yeah freaking enhanced gaming been waiting my whole life for this. Who needs new exclusive games give me old games with "Enhancements" boom console war over.

[MagUk]

@ imtrumpeach

Please list these games I’m sure a lot of them ain’t even out yet.

[JaguarEvolved]

People are talking about old games enhanced for the new Xbox one x system with "0" exclusive titles with word-play exclusives coming next year that'll also be on pc. Did anyone watch Paris game show and saw amazing true exclusive titles for the ps4 there and not play-play exclusives?

[thesoftware730]

That is what i thought, New Monday had absolutely nothing to add to this great news.

[andrewsquall]

@DiRtY Yet again, we know this. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/...
And loads of those games won't be out until May 2018 and beyond. So in other words, there are new games coming to Xbone soon.

@christocolus And the thing is, the list of 150 games isn't actually going to grow as fast as you clearly think it is because they can't add Biomutant to that list again when it launches in August or September next year (if it launches around then of course, that was just an example).
That game however WILL be added to PS4 Pro's growing enhanced list because that game is currently not included in the "225 enhanced games for Pro" list (which has actually already gone up to about 245 games since Sony made that list 3 weeks ago).

If anybody disagrees with these facts, please, explain to me why you do.

[zackeroniii]

who cares just give me minecraft 4k to max out those 6 beasty teraflops!!!

[strifeblade]

@imtrumpeach

lol every single game that is on the pro and the x, will be leagues ahead of its pro counterpart- something the pro will never be ahead in and where it matters most

[slavish0]

Damn u need a life. Same trolls in every article. No one is listening to you bro. Man u must be crying harder each day the x1x gets closer. Youll get through this 😭

[alexh]

All the new games that are coming out this fall are getting one x enhancments then in the coming weeks more older titles well get the one x enhancments what more do you want? Its exactly what the ps4 pro did if anything it had less to begin with.

[Bigpappy]

Correcting. Pro has 255 boost mode games. Very few of those games have any enhancements. But that will all be shown in time and it will be embarrassing. It's going to make the pro look even less attractive.

Stop selling falsities.

[DrumBeat]

I thought boost mode was only for games that were pre CUH-7000 series of PS4 consoles?

[ziggurcat]

@pappy: no. boost mode is applied to any game that doesn’t have Pro enhancements... the 200+ number is for games that have Pro enhancements.

You need to stop listening to crapgamer and colt eastwood.

[MecheSlays]

Yeah with most of them just having res increases. The Xbox one x is getting an even higher res along with texture and anisotropic filtering increases

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

Not good? X enhancements are better than Pro's AND the Pro has been out for a year, sooo...

[thesoftware730]

Did the pro launch with the bigger #?

Beside, why is it bad 70 Enhanced games will be there on launch day? That is a huge amount for anyone thinking about buying in the launch window(no, not you)

[falviousuk]

It's bad because its for the Xbox, thats the only reason.

If this was the other way around and Sony was just about to release this console, they would be saying the exact opposite.

Sony fanboys, the worst type of 'gamer; there is out there.

And yes this isnt a news for gamers site anymore its a sony fanboy hangout supported by the admins who do nothing to stop this type of trolling but will ban xbox users, im just waiting on my ban now in fact

[TankCrossing]

Yeah but these are way more enhanced, because the Xbox One X is a lot more powerful than the Pro.

Quality over quantity, right?

[Obscure_Observer]

@NewMonday

Well, depends on what you call "enhanced". How many games on Pro is on par with Horizon, NioH, Wipeout or Rise of the Tomb Raider levels of enhancements?

[ziggurcat]

sadly, there are no specific policies on what the Pro enhancements have to be - right now, it can be anything... whether it's a resolution bump, frame rate increase or both.

[Obscure_Observer]

@ziggurcat

You´re right. Same policies aplies to Xbox One X too. Developers (even first party) are free to do what they think is best for their games. And that applies to game enhancements as well.

[Pantz]

I love my PS1440Pro, but X0X Enhancements are in a league of their own.

[Jaypi03]

That's neat and all, but we're talking about the Xbox, so lets try to stay on topic.

[Vasto]

Bring on the beast!

[ILostMyMind]

Congrats! It is almost all XBO's games.

[GUTZnPAPERCUTZ]

All I care about right now is The Witcher 3, I need to finish it and holding off until the X update comes out, hopefully they offer more than the Pro Update

[shuvam09]

Hahahaha...
You magnificent troll :)

[ILostMyMind]

Some guys did not realize that. 🤣

[Ittoittosai]

How many will be new IPs is all I want to know because if I can just get them on my PC or my PS4 Pro Im not going to shell out 500 then 60$ to play the same thing just a little nice looking.

[Yohshida]

Sure thing you game on PC

[bluefox755]

Why is that hard to believe? Many of us game on PC, it's not a big deal.

[Yohshida]

Well, everytime someone on here acts like they play on PC I usually ask them about their steam ID, but noone ever answers. Most on here only own a high end gaming PC when it fits their narrativ

[BigWan78]

@VideoGameLab...

half of these people be lying... the "I game on PC" is the go to card...

the brag about everything playstation, xbox one x gets announced and all of a sudden they all have monster rigs...

[Yohshida]

@ImTrumPeach

1 in a million, why would I add some random N4G people anyway?

[yomfweeee]

Why would anyone give out their steam ID to a random fan boy on the internet? That's your logic for thinking these people don't play games on PC?

[MetroidFREAK21]

I can dig it. Hope Halo 5 is among the first :)

[aconnellan]

Confirmed that the Halo 5 update is happening this week :)

[MetroidFREAK21]

Awesome! I have my XB1 S to automatically download the 4K updates to be ready for Tuesday! Thanks for the confirmation! :D

[2cents]

Its a good start, that's for sure.

My first games to play on the X are going to be, Forza 7, Gears of War 4 and Assassins Creed Origins.

6 Days!!! Giggdy

[TejasTV]

Hmm I wonder why everyone on here was claiming the number to be in the hundreds.

[andrewsquall]

Exactly. Now Microsoft have officially laid it down so they can't deny it any more.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

So at launch they have a large library of games that show off what the console can do. Thats a great thing for those getting it and those on the fence. The real uptick on this is that its a combination of new games releasing like: COD WW2, Battlefront 2 that are big hitters (including PUBG for console) as well as recently released titles like AC: Origins, Shadow of Mordor, Forza 7 and then support for some of the bigger previous release games like Gears of War 4, Titanfall 2 and Halo 5.

[Donnie81]

I'm ready bring on the beast

[BLKxSEPTEMBER]

So now the fanboy war has shifted to who has more enhanced games? Some of you are truly petty and bicker over the stupidest things like lil school girls. My god....

[TheUndertaker85]

It's now petty to have more content to take advantage of a new product and using it as justification for choosing one product over another?

People shouldn't be happy for better support?

[BLKxSEPTEMBER]

I think you completely missed my point...

[2cents]

I loose track sometimes as to what the current agenda is.
I only see cause to celebrate on each platform, there is so much going on in the industry, so many reasons to be happy, but no. It's just a new flavor of BS every day.

[Hanilugtehul]

Just want to tell my antivirus is blocking webattack from js coinminer download 8 and js coinmine download 6 every time i visit n4g.com . just a warning to everybody that doesnt have a antivirus program. i have been a user on n4g.com for 8 years and this warning has only show up on my computer the last month. peace:)

[SirBradders]

What happened to all the console launch exclusive games?

[SkippyPaccino]

Who need games when you have extra pixels and framerates....

[SirBradders]

I generally want to know though.

[SkippyPaccino]

*I generally want to know though*

I'm assuming they weren't really ready for the ONE X launch... Even when they've been talking about it non-stop, they were never truly ready to show us true 4k... It's almost like they've started talking about it the moment they started working on it.

[Lexreborn2]

Let’s take ourselves out of this for a second and reflect on what has been being said to one another the last year. If 225 enhanced PS4 games aren’t justifiable for he pro. Does this mean that 70 games enhanced for Xbox X is not justifiable?

Let’s see how this logic is spent by our peers now.

[andrewsquall]

WOW, it looks like I was being generous saying it had 80 games at launch but now its official. Wait, "within launch week"? Not even launch day?

[optimus]

So now it's going to be the battle of "enhanced" games?? Hilarious...well, like The Rock likes to say...IT DOESN'T MATTER how enhanced the ps4 games get they will never be as enhanced as the xbX games because it simply doesn't have the power to do so!....sure, they may get a resolution or framerate bump here and there but chances are the xbX will have the better version anyway....deal with it.

[Scatpants]

It'll have around zero exclusives for launch week.

[SubZtx]

MGS V 1440p on the Pro......

[GoodnessGreatness]

And 0 exclusives

[Trueflames]

Msg 5 runs at 1440p no way the xbox one x will run that native and 4k textures

[81BX]

The beast is almost here!!!
