Video: Gears 5 and Gears Tactics gameplay on Xbox Series X; 120 fps mode
New videos of Gears 5 and Gears Tactics’ gameplay on the upcoming Xbox Series X have surfaced on the web. They provide an insight into how both games perform on Microsoft’s next-generation system. The recordings are posted on the Clubic YouTube channel.
Sadly, YouTube doesn’t support frame rates higher than 60, but the console is reportedly capable of doing so in these games. According to the latest report from Ars Technica, Gears 5 on the Xbox Series X runs perfectly at 120 fps, just like on modern high-end PCs – not a bad achievement (albeit at the cost of some graphic simplification).
Also during testing, the new console showed quiet operation for several hours under load, and the Gears 5 almost always produced an ideal 120fps (with a frame calculation for the prescribed 8.33ms). According to journalists, such a high frequency really makes the gameplay more enjoyable, responsive, and smoother.
Gears 5 and Gears Tactics are among the Xbox Series X-optimized games, along with several other notable titles like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Borderlands 3, Forza Horizon 4, Sea of Thieves, and many more. Gears 5 is available on PC and Xbox One, while Gears Tactics can only be launched on the first of the two platforms for now – on November 10, the tactics will be available on Xbox One, Series X, and S.
