Today Microsoft announced that Gears of War 2, Red Dead Redemption, Portal 2, Sonic Generations, Darksiders, and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed are getting the Xbox One X enhanced treatment via backward compatibility today.
According to the announcement made during the second episode of Inside Xbox, Gears of War 2 runs at 4K on Microsoft’s console, but even more interestingly, all DLC for the game will be free from now on. Incidentally, the game is on Game Pass, of if you subscribe to the service, you can fire it up right now.
Enhancements also include 10-bit colors, better frame rate, and crisper textures.
You can see an official trailer below showing the enhancements for Gears of War 2, and a comparison video for Red Dead Redemption and more courtesy of YouTube user ElAnalistaDeBits.
If you still don’t have an Xbox One X but want in on all the enhancements, you can purchase one on Amazon. The same goes for Xbox Game Pass.
