If you're wondering what 'Auto Enabled' means, Microsoft hasn't made every game automatically boosted due to the fact that some titles have suffered a resolution drop because of it. As a result, the company is leaving it up to you to decide whether you want to utilise FPS Boost or not, as detailed by the Xbox team below:

"In some instances, because there are higher graphics requirements to enable FPS Boost technology, we’ve had to reduce a game’s resolution to ensure it both runs smoothly and plays great. In those select cases, such as Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 in this latest title announcement, FPS Boost is not automatically enabled for Xbox Series X gamers. For all titles receiving this update, gamers will see a clear indicator if a title is running FPS Boost.

At Xbox, we’re all about giving you the choice in how you want to play your favorite games, whether in its original form or with FPS Boost and/or Auto HDR. As we also detailed a few weeks back and included as part of our March Platform Update, you can now go into the 'Manage Game' section for any enhanced title, where you’ll see the new 'Compatibility Options' button that will allow you to toggle FPS Boost and Auto HDR 'on' or 'off.'"

Microsoft has since explained that there are no more plans for FPS Boosted titles "in the immediate future", primarily due to "finding where some of the limitations of our current technique is." The program could return at some point down the line, but as of 2024 it's still yet to make a comeback.
