Ori and the Will of the Wisps renders internally at 6k resolution on Xbox Series X – Gaming – News

Ori and the Will of the Wisps will be internally rendered on the upcoming Xbox Series X console in 6k resolution, after which supersampling is scaled back to 4k again. That should further improve image quality.

Thomas Mahler, game director van Moon Studios, speaks on the Resetera forum about a mode on Series X where the game is rendered internally at 6k. “I don’t think there will be anything comparable in terms of image quality for now,” he says. With that he suggests that this mode in any case significantly increases the graphic quality compared to other modes. Mahler adds a comment, describing the image quality through this in this 6k mode as ‘obscene, with hdr and filters on top’.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is, like its predecessor Ori and the Blind Forest, a side-scrolling platformer that, while graphically pleasing, won’t push the Series X’s hardware to the limit. That probably makes it possible to run the game internally at the higher 6k resolution. This is also the case with another, graphically less demanding game like The Touryst. The developer previously informed Wccftech that their game will be rendered in 6k on Series X and in 4k on Series S, after which the resolution will be scaled down.

Exactly which modes Ori and the Will of the Wisps will support on the Series X is not yet clear, but it has long been known that the game can be played on this console in 4k and 120fps. The 6k mode will probably be accompanied by 60 instead of 120fps, although Mahler gave no further clarification about this. By the way, Ori and the Will of the Wisps on the Xbox One X already runs in 4k resolution at 60fps, although there were complaints about performance problems and frame drops after the release in March.
