State of Decay 2 Xbox One X Enhancements detailed

State of Decay 2 will feature a number of Xbox One X Enhancements including stabilised frame rate, high-res textures and more.

State of Decay 2 will harness the power of the Xbox One X as Undead Labs wishes; unlike other titles, it won’t offer profiles that can potentially improve different areas of the game, opting for a standardised set of enhancements instead.

“There are significant visual enhancements we’re able to deliver thanks to the Xbox One X,” Undead’s Jeff Strain told IGN recently.

“Extra memory and greater processing power gives us a more stable frame rate and let’s us do more with higher resolution textures. When you’re in the game, you’ll immediately see the difference — denser foliage, detailed shadows, depth of light from farther distances, and more detailed character models. It makes the world feel more crisp, vibrant, and like real life. And of course, it lets us run the game in 4K and HDR, which a lot of fans are excited about.”

State of Decay 2 heads to Windows PC and Xbox One on 22 May. It’s a Xbox Play Anywhere title that also heads to the Xbox Game Pass subscription program on the same day.
