Patch Notes – Xbox One X (v1.16)
4K Rendering
Xbox One X graphics are rendered at 4K. This will bring you a much sharper image on a 4K TV. We are using a real-time variable resolution (up to 4K-2160p) coupled with hardware scaling that output to TV resolution. With the scaling, even lower resolution HD TV’s will notice a better overall definition.
Improved shadow resolution
Shadows on Xbox One X will have a better definition.
Improved level of detail distances
Far away environment objects will be rendered with a higher definition.
Improved water using Screen-Space Reflections
Many water surfaces will now show dynamic reflections.
For Honor was recently updated with Season Four: Order & Havoc, which introduced two new heroes, two new maps, a new 4v4 Tribute mode, ranked Dominion mode, new customization items and several gameplay updates. This update is now available across all platforms.
Developed by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with other Ubisoft studios,* For Honor offers an engaging campaign and thrilling multiplayer modes. Players embody warriors of the three Great Factions – the bold Knights, the brutal Vikings and the deadly Samurai – fighting to the death on intense and believable melee battlefields. The Art of Battle, the game’s innovative combat system that puts players in total control of their warriors, allows them to utilize the unique skills and combat style of each hero to vanquish all enemies who stand in their way.
