The X version should be even better, especially when it doesn't have the frame pacing issues the PlayStation has.

I know its not going to happen but if all games came with three separate modes like Tomb Raider does it really would be a game changer. I really really hope that first party studios are taking note.

Native 4K mode looks great on the One X. You can definitely see the improvement over the Pro, just off the textures alone.
That shimmer during the 4K Enriched Visuals mode is pretty noticeable, though. The "temporal reconstruction technique" they're using seems pretty janky compared to the checkerboarding we see on the Pro.

I just updated the OP with an example where Xbox One X, PS4 Pro and PC are compared.
Enjoy!
Dayom. It is quite damn clear there, holy cow.
Ok well in that case 4K all the way for me.
Oh and some of those folks here going "I prefer the PS4, X version looks unnatural. Really? You can't make this shit up, haha.

The Xbox One X versions looks fantastic, would love to play the game a third time, when I get the console in 2018. Looking forward to another analyse near launch from DF.
I loved the PS4 Pro coverage last year and I do hope they will do the same with the X this year.
Edit:
Just a nitpick, but the X versions looks slightly sharper than the PC version. Is there some form of oversharpening in place? Iirc that was (is?) a problem with Xbox One games a while back ago.

I agree. I don't know how many posts were trying to say there would not be much at all difference because the difference in flop count is about the same as the difference between PS4 and Xbox One. I have been consistent in stating that the memory amount and bandwidth were going to play a lot into what would make the differences. I am a PC player as well and been gaming in 4k for sometime, one thing I learned early on when jumping to get hardware to 4k was the amount of Vram it would take just to run in 4k, then the extra Vram needed for higher res textures.
Being a closed system and some of the improvements they made the CPU is making it possible to get to 4k with a 6tf GPU, but it is the memory and memory bandwidth that is going to make a huge difference if devs take advantage of it.

I agree that it's debatable that the upgrade is worthwhile, but the difference is obvious. As a person interested in tech, I'm impressed with the XB1X in that point of view.
Great job with the captures.

Yeah but to be fair the Pro patch mainly updated the Resolution and added effects for the enhanced mode.
I expect the X1X update to be a lot beefer update with complete replacement of thr original textures.
There's a lot more gone into it which is to be expected considering it's been a year.
I wonder if the updated textures could be implemented in the Pro version, still 4k enhanced mode is the main stand out which sets them apart
Onother update on the OP:
Enjoy!
I mean, no one is going to argue that a high end PC can't pull this off. The thing is if it ever does but it's not about capabilities but dedication.
Think it's just worse AA. You can see on the bridge of the nose. As one example.

Because Crystal Dynamics added a little new updated textures not present in PS4/PC.Why are some differences so much bigger, like here?
And some hardly noticable, like here?
We don't know yet if they will update the other platforms to include a few of the new stuff changes

Oh yes. Difference is huge. Much bigger than expected

In the video, he mentions that the extra level of blurriness is not primarily because of resolution, but rather that they dialed down the use of motion blur in the 1X version.

For the top image, the One X version is definitely using newer textures (not seen on the Pro or PC versions) and it's also missing the depth of field we get on the Pro (probably just for demo purposes, hopefully the final release adds that in because it would be a downgrade without it).
The bottom image is probably a cutscene using the same assets on both versions.

Exactly, he also says you have to look at still shots to make anything out...so ...
On my 4K TV played it in high frame rate mode, interesting to see if XBX holds a better 60.
Still think we need a console with a decent CPU and we could play all games at 60 developer option permitting.

Not just the textures, in the close ups it looks like there is some kind of blur-filter on the whole picture on Pro compared to the crisp Xbox One X picture. I don't know the details regarding checkerboarding and native resolution but I'm honestly blown away by this comparison. Didn't expect anything like this. And it's just the beginning.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
I still believe a update will come.
PC is definitely capable and so far no other game has had this kinda difference between Pro and X1X, Native Resolution and Performance had been the main difference so a updated texture pack must be the key difference which I'm sure the PC and even Pro can handle.
it whether they update them, that's the question.
I doubt they will thou.

It's the kind of update that would made me jump from one console to another, but I'm just so used to the PlayStation 4 ecosystem at this point that it's super hard for me to do it. I'm glad Nixxes is proving once again they are one of the best in business.

The added graphic effects for the definitve editions of the Tomb Raider reboot (also made by Nixxes) never made it to the PC, so I wouldn't expect that the PC version will get the same upgrades.

Not interested in the game. But makes me even more excited for the X.
I think that's due to the Xbox One X having reduced depth of field.
Digital Foundry said:
Correct me if I'm wrong. New to delving into the tech side.
Those 4K textures are pretty damn good though. Wonder if it holds a solid 60 on enhanced mode (or whatever it is on XBX).

Probably not, unless Square Enix pays for it which they have little reason to do. I'm guessing that Microsoft footed the bill for the X1X version.

The first screen has some prominent textures upgraded so the difference is more easily visible. The second one is seems to use all the same textures so it would be a lot harder to tell. I don't think I could pass the pepsi challenge on the second one.

This. It's funny but i really don't believe the difference in the first screen has to do with "power". Looks more like over using of Dof or blur, and other shots are almost the same quality.
I think DoF is not enabled in the X1 shot or they both captured in different modes.

One X looks great. Will consumers care? Dunno.

Not talking about the background, there is a blurriness on Lara's face too on Pro compared to XBX. But maybe that's just the effect of less sharp textures? Or is it the checkerboarding?
Whatever it is it's surprising! My PC just became old news too tbh, 1080ti on 1080p screens, great framerates but nothing like the crispiness seen here.

Yes you are and I'm saying it too, this is insane!
If this is the norm then $499 won't seem so expensive anymore. But I honestly just think it's Nixxes showing off their skills here.
