This Series X processor is powerful enough to be able to run four Xbox One S game sessions at the same time. It can also handle a more intensive Ray Tracing by harnessing the equivalent of 25 teraflops of power. There is also a quick resume feature that stores the game states in the SSD and allows you to turn off, unplug, or update the console, while then being able to boot up where you left off.
The Xbox blogpost wrote:
“One of the testers on the team unplugged his console for a week, then took an update, and was still able to continue right where he left off without so much as a loading screen.”
It should be noted that the Series X is capable of applying: “convincing HDR effects even to games that weren’t designed with that functionality in mind.”
Are you looking forward to the new Xbox?
