So there you have it, guys. Xbox One X will run ROTR at native 4K (3840×2160) resolution with “enriched visuals” and “high frame rate”.

Aside from that, ROTR on Xbox One X will also support High-Dynamic Range (HDR), Dolby Atmos and it will have improved textures as well as enhancements in other lighting effects.
