The latest game in theĀ Forza Horizon series is getting a slight upgrade and will now run in 4K at 60fps. Beyond that, Microsoft says players will benefit from reduced loading times and the Series X’s ‘Quick Resume’ feature, which lets you continue playing multiple games from a suspended save point.
Gears 5
The latestĀ Gears of WarĀ game is also getting an upgrade with reduced load times, improved visuals and Quick Resume. Players will need to select the game’s ultra graphics setting to take advantage of the new look.
