Updated language on their blog post about XSS:
“We’re targeting 1080p on Xbox Series S, but the other benefits above will apply, including 60 FPS and full Ray Traced lighting throughout.”
Full RT, 60fps confirmed, target is 1080p.
4A going hard on this one.

Sounds like an meaty update!
4A games is a great studio that always pushed both PC and console hardware so I have no doubt that they will deliver something special here. I am a big fan of the Metro series since the first one came out on the 360, I have the beautiful Aurora Edition of Exodus on Xbox and I still haven’t played the expansions so this patch will be a great excuse to revisit the game on Series X.

…t of making things look more realistic as well, but has largely been ignored by most implementations of RT in other games maybe due to it being much more intensive or difficult. So I’m glad to see 4A actually doing so much to make sure their game was an absolute showcase not just in being one of the early adopters but also one of the best ones moving forward. Shame Xbox lost them to Embracer lol, but looks like nothing bad has come about from the acquisition, only good. Shitty publishers like 505 could learn something from these guys tbh. They took 10 million for epic exclusivity, took PS now money, then took Luna money, then took Gamepass money, are taking next gen upgrade money, and now took money from playstation to just give that next gen upgrade along with the DLCs away, it’s crazy lol.
It’s such a shame Control was my favourite game of 2019 but after the fuck up from 505 I felt robbed and lost any urge to play it ever again.

4A are the real deal. They deliver technical benchmarks on consoles and PC since Metro 2033.

Yeah, the raytracing in that was already very good, and judging by the comparison pics it’s now by far the amplest usage.
Can’t wait to see how well the console versions will fare. 4k reconstructed at 60 fps with all those raytracing effects sounds like a pipe dream given the early results

Updated the title and main post to include todays new look at Exodus which should give us an idea as to how the X|S versions should look.
