Ready for the next set of FPS Boosts for Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S? We haven't seen any additions since five Bethesda games were highlighted back in mid-March, but it looks like the next batch will be with us imminently.
This is according to Xbox director of program management Jason Ronald, who was asked earlier today about when the next set of titles would get the treatment, giving just a very simple, one word answer:
In case you've forgotten, the FPS Boost program allows Microsoft to enhance the frame rates on Xbox One games without requiring assistance from the developer, although it isn't suitable for every game in the library.
So far, ten games have received an FPS Boost including the likes of Far Cry 4, Watch Dogs 2, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 4, and you better believe we've got some pretty long wishlists here at Pure Xbox towers!
What do you want to see added to the FPS Boost program next on Xbox Series X & S? Tell us down below.

What really needs a FPS boost is GTA 5 was really hoping it would get a patch when I upgraded from a standard PS4 to the PS4 pro but it never did
I have a feeling this next set of FPS Boost games will be very multiplayer focused to push that 120Hz competitive feel.
Forza Horizon 3 please. I bought the FH3 Ultimate 'FOMO' edition before it was delisted and while it got a 4K One X enhanced update it's only 30fps.
Also
I really want to see Deus Ex Mankind Divided at 60fps, please... running it in my XBSX it's painful because it doesn't even seem 30fps.
Another one: GTA V, would be a great addition to FPS Boost.
@Would_you_kindly They won't do it with the next-gen version coming in a few months time.
You'll likely have to pay for the XSX/XSS/PS5 upgrade, so they won't be offering performance boosts for the last-gen version.
Content/patches for the last-gen will be starting to die off for GTA V soon probably anyway, as they've confirmed the PS5/XSX version will have more content.
The 360/PS3 version died almost as soon as the PS4/XBO version launched, so I'm guessing the same will happen to PS4/XBO when PS5/XSX launches.
Ryse, gears of war ultimate, quantum break, and sunset over drive would be great.
Far Cry 5, Red Dead 2, Spyro Trilogy, Shadow of Tomb Raider please.
@Would_you_kindly
They've already announced a next-gen version of GTA5 is coming later this year. I'm assuming that will include a 60fps option.
@pepsilover2008
Yeah it's weird how they didn't start with the xbox exclusive games like those.
Maybe because the technique doesn't work on every game.
@Dezzy yeah I know there's a next gen upgrade coming unfortunately I won't be getting a new console for a while as I can't afford one & they aren't readily available ,it's just a shame it never got a patch for the PS4 pro / one X
Jason Sunset Overdrive Please 🙏🙏
FFXIII trilogy. 😍
@gingataisen
That's on the X360. These are only for Xbox One at the moment.
I'd like to see Ghost Recon Wildlands get a boost..
@Dezzy Final Fantasy Type-0, then. 😅
Dark souls remastered, so I can "enjoy" blighttown
Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Origins would be swell, as I haven't played them yet.
@PhhhCough
Dark Souls Remastered is already flawless 60fps on the Series S/X.
I'm starting nier automata soon so I'm hoping for that to be on the list.
definitely more Ubisoft games, and i bet Rockstar wont budge and we will need to wait for GTA5R
Well, Dragon Age: Inquisition was supposed to be in the first batch announced by Major Nelson, but was cut for some reason, so I assume that will be one of them.
@jaSz Mankind Divided could use a lot more. It's like a different game on PS4Pro/PS5 because it had a full Pro patch, but released before the X1X and was a sales flop that they killed support on, so it never got an X1X patch. So on Xbox it's still stuck at launch VCR X1 900p with low res textures and terrible framerate. On PS4 Pro/5, it has 4k (checkerboard) with high res textures and a stable framerate. It's one of half a dozen games or so that never got updates on XB but did on PS because they launched in that year between 4 Pro and 1X.
@SegataSanshiro aw ***** thanks didn't know that!
I'm on every platform but the game's noticeably broken on pc.
@SegataSanshiro yes I read all about that, can't believe people actually took the time to review bomb a four year old game just because a 'new port' works better lmao. But even if performance was better on pc I don't like playing on it so I'm glad it's 60 on the series x.
Far Cry 5 and Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2.
