Red Dead Redemption 2 and Forza 7 will demonstrate 4K on Project Scorpio
Other first-party titles mentioned were Crackdown 3, and State of Decay 2.
Third-party offerings noted in the marketing materials include Call of Duty (we’re assuming CoD: World War 2, here) Madden NFL 2017, FIFA 7 and Star Wars: Battlefront 2.
It’s said all will be shown on Project Scorpio in 4K resolution, including the aforementioned Red Dead Redemption 2.
Red Dead Redemption 2 was officially announced in October last year for PS4 and Xbox One. Along with announcement, Rockstar and Take-Two revealed PS4 players will get “first access to earn select online content”. A release date other than fall 2017 hasn’t been provided, but a recent retail leak suggests we can expect it on October 3, which is a typical Tuesday release.
Along with the titles mentioned above, Windows Central also reports there will be several “4K games out of the box, due to change resilience.” Games which run in 900p to 1080p in Xbox One will also be scaled to 4K on Scorpio. Obviously, you will need a 4K TV in order to benefit from the console.
Earlier this year, Digital Foundry came into possession of a Microsoft document, which stated Project Scorpio would not use ESRAM, which is integrated with Xbox One’s processor. Since Microsoft promised in the past there wouldn’t be any “Project Scorpio exclusives,” studios will still need to support ESRAM so customers can play the titles on either system. It was confirmed also the console supports backward compatibility with Xbox 360 titles.
The souped up Xbox Scorpio, as previously reported, sports an 8-core CPU capable of 6 teraflops of computing power 4.5 times as powerful as Xbox One. This has been known since E3 2016 when both Xbox One S and Scorpio were discussed by Microsoft.
Along with the initial specs, “true 4K gaming” and “high-fidelity” virtual reality, the console will also support 4K Blu-ray, something Microsoft was quick to point out when it was revealed PS4 Pro wouldn’t support 4K Blu-ray.
The company has yet to decide if it will show more of Project Scorpio before E3 2017, which takes place in June. In February, the firm announced its press event would take place at the Galen Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 11 instead of the typical Monday.

Mario350 i highly doubt a console can do true 4k cause then the ps4 pro is true 4k also ps4 was and is still more powerful then xbox 2(pro can do real 1080p) xbox 2 con(can only do 900p) ps4 pro con(some odd res) xb2s con(some odd res) the fact that they say these two consoles are 4k are just all lies unless the xb2s is using intel core i7 7xxx and a 1080ti then good on ms but we know its not and it is a custom amd crappy chip
AMD APU's are used in every console? Where is your logic here. You can game at 4k with a 1050. You realize there is a major difference between desktop grade and notebook essentially grade hardware right? Games are optimized for that specific console not a million different combinations of parts. You can game a 4k 60fps with a i5 6500 / i7 3980k / rx 480 8gb nearly 1/2 the price of the 1080ti for a system including RAM. Where are you getting these numbers from. lol. The PS4 pro is not more powerful? We barely know anything about scorpio? Playstation released three consoles within three years does that not say something? At all? lmfao. the xbox 360 upscales to 1080p, the xbox one s upscales to 4k. So your logic is way out of question in terms of what does better every where.

What? Firstly Ps4 pro isnt true 4k 2nd there are plenty of games that run native 1080p on Xbox 3rd what is Xbox 2? 4th You dont need an i7 and a 1080 to game in 4k.
