Xbox Series X | S games having performance issues with late-shipped devkits? Microsoft is investigating the matter

–

With the launch of the new generation on the Web they appear first materials comparing the quality of the game from the Xbox Series X | S and PlayStation 5. In various games, the systems offer different performance, and despite the greatest capabilities of XSX, Microsoft’s hardware unexpectedly performs worse in some tests.

Tom Warren from The Verge decided to investigate the matter, who contacted individual developers and learned the details of the problems. According to the information obtained, Microsoft delivered the Xbox Series X | S devkits very late. The final tools went to the developers much later than the devices prepared by Sony, thanks to which the teams were given more time to optimize games on PlayStation 5.

We can conclude that the lack of presentation of materials from the Xbox Series X | S almost until the premiere was caused by the described situation – the creators received the equipment late, so they could not use it properly.

A Microsoft spokesman confirms the problems and talks about resolving any difficulties as soon as possible:

“We are aware of performance issues with several optimized titles on the X | S Series X | S and are actively working with our partners to identify and address these issues for an optimal experience. We are starting a new generation of consoles, our partners are only now getting to know the capabilities of the next-gen console, and we expect minor tweaks before they learn to take full advantage of the potential of our new platform. We are eager to continue working with developers to further explore the capabilities of the Xbox Series X / S. ”

It is worth recalling that recently Phil Spencer spoke about an important issue – Microsoft started mass production of the X | S Series X | S very late, as the full integration of RDNA 2 was long awaited. It is very possible that due to the problems some games did not make it to the premiere – including Medium.
