The list of games getting the “Xbox One X enhanced” treatment is now two titles longer, with the recent addition of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus and The Evil Within 2 to the Xbox Store.

Not only are both games listed as “Xbox One X Enhanced,” but they both will also support 4K and HDR, which is not necessarily a given for all “enhanced” games.

How these games will be enhanced for the “world’s most powerful console” is still unclear, as results vary from game to game. However, given the popularity of the practice among other high-profile, third-party games on the horizon, it’s possible both Wolfenstein II and Evil Within 2 (which are both published by Bethesda) will utilize checkerboard rendering to hit that 4K mark. Most games that are hitting the hallowed native 4K benchmark are first-party titles like Gears of War 4 and Halo 5.

The Evil Within 2 is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on October 13th, with Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus following it to those platforms two weeks later on October 27th.

Xbox One X is still scheduled for a November 7th release, despite recent rumors about its delay.
