Looks very good, though I wonder how 'gameplay' this actually is running on Xbox One.

Releases December 16 as per the trailer, though I'm not sure if that is early access release or full.

Dictator93 · Dec 9, 2015

Given how the PC version performs, I wonder what settings the xb1 is running at and at what resolution. Low 900p?

Bsigg12 · Dec 9, 2015

It was announced as one of the Game Preview games right?

FinKL · Dec 9, 2015

Did they really add THAT MUCH to the game in 6 months?! Isn't optimization still horrendous on PC (980 TI's struggling to run it), I don't even see how it would run on Xbox One.

That's amazing if they can fulfill what's on the gameplay trailer on Xbox

SEGAvangelist · Dec 9, 2015

I didn't realize it was coming so soon. This is great news!

InsaneTiger · Dec 9, 2015

Comes out on my birthday.

Jawmuncher · Dec 9, 2015

No PS4, sounds like it will be part of the Early Access games.

backflip10019 · Dec 9, 2015

Wow, this is out in a week? Awesome. I'll check it out.

CrimsonEclipse · Dec 9, 2015

Looks good, probably will run at 480p though. Don't believe.

Yes, which means it will come with an hour of trial play to help people decide if they want to buy it. Curious how it will perform.

ironcreed · Dec 9, 2015

Well damn. I may have to hop in on this.

Bits N Pieces · Dec 9, 2015

How much?

Mad Season · Dec 9, 2015

runs like shit on high end PCs. This will not go well.........

but I hope it does!

JumPeRJumPzZ · Dec 9, 2015

Hmmm... i really wonder how a open world UE4 game is going to perform on XboxOne...

Was always thinking about buying this game for PC. But reading about all this Performance issues made me nope

And wasnt most of this footage shown in the announcement trailer for XboxOne at E3 or GamesCom? I remember seeing this stuff..

Timed exclusives for early access? That's a new one.

$34.99 if you join through early access. It'll be more when it actually releases.

I wonder if they'll do another one of those Battle Royale/Hunger Games type tournaments. I wasn't interested in the game at all until I saw that.

Big difference between being optimized for hardware and not being optimized for hardware.

This is also a DX12 title so hopefully a lot the CPU intensive stuff can be dealt with or at least soften the impact.

Cheers. So maybe about £28? Hmmmm.

R3TRODYCE · Dec 9, 2015

This game was so mediocre and it ran like shit on PC so I'm glad they put in place Steam refunds for titles like this but it's nice seeing the Xbox game preview thing working.

I hope there is some detailed investigation into how much "optimizing for hardware" and how much "moving sliders to the left" was involved here.

Already Torn · Dec 9, 2015

Is this game any fun? It has my namesake in it according to the wiki.

tuna_love · Dec 9, 2015

I wonder if the game will be updated as quick as PC. Gets like 2 updates a day.

Lys Skygge · Dec 9, 2015

Huh, I thought this was announced for PS4 first. Or was the XB1 version announced before the PS4 version?

So far it has not proved true to a great extent, PC versions perform very nearly to their console counterparts on equivalent GCN hardware. Ryse runs as well as it does on Xbone on a R7 260 and I bet more multiplats.

You might be confusing optimization with "downgrading".

The game runs pretty badly but surely there is room for performance improvements.

Common sense?

Why does there need to be a "detailed investigation"? We will find out in 7 or so days.

Wow, c'mon now guys.

The point of consoles is that games can be optimized to a single piece of hardware.

Gowans · Dec 9, 2015

Can't wait, will get my whole gang in on it at that price

I don't think it's timed. It was announced for summer 16 for both consoles. This is just the early access program

I think it was announced first but MS are able to get them on the console early with Game Preview so that seems to work for them.

They said on twitter its due on PS4 in Summer 2016

El_Chino · Dec 9, 2015

Not excited about it to be honest. The way it's performed on PC, I'm afraid how bad it will be on the X1

We know that, but I'm somewhat sceptical about the gains, could you enlighten me ?
No doubt the CPU cost must be greatly alleviated (high level APIs incur a significant CPU overhead this is nothing new), but about situations where the GPU is the sole limiting factor ?

Could you tell us about a game where the Xbox One punches way above a R7 260, it closest equivalent in the PC space ?

Wuthering_Heights · Dec 9, 2015

Will play on PS4 for sure. Hopefully the beta testing on XB1 makes for a better PS4 version once it releases for real. Looks like a lot of fun.

It's features like this where I'm jealous of XB1 users. I know "early access" gets some crap around here but I'd love it on PS4. I did just build a new PC but I still need to get a graphics card.

The nice thing about Game Preview is other than having the option to buy a game in early access, you're given a timed trial for the game to see if you want to put money down in the first place. It sold me on Elite for the Xbox One.

Corine · Dec 9, 2015

Not sure why everyone is saying it runs bad. Don't think it dips below 40fps on my i7 930 with a amd 280 other then when I'm in my base with 100+ tamed dinos. Yeah it was worse months and months ago when it first released but it's come a long long way since then. By far the best game I've played in years. Over 900 hours played and can easily see myself playing another 900+.

It seems to run better on amd for some reason. It is an amazing game. Building a base on the back a pterodactyl is so awesome

Gowans · Dec 9, 2015

Are there any good quick looks or how to play videos on this that show what it's all about?

The Flash · Dec 9, 2015

Grimlock!

Banjo-Kazooie · Dec 9, 2015

I'll definitely be trying the trial. For those who don't know, early access titles on XB1 have mandatory trials.

DJSebolski · Dec 9, 2015

Imagine if it runs smooth on X1.

jond76 · Dec 9, 2015

Not sure what this game is about but my 4 year old son will love watching me play it.

Corine · Dec 9, 2015

DJSebolski said:

I don't see why they couldn't since it runs smooth now on PC. Just lower the graphics till it does. Of course any game like this is impossible to run at any given framerate since you can always add more to any given scenario. A scene running at a stable 30-60 fps will have it's performance drastically changed if 20 people all riding 20 different dinos all with different custom paint jobs show up on your screen. I have a good 100 or so dinos just at my base of course it's going to run a lot worse than if I only had 5 dinos. Probably the most technically impressive game coming in 2016 minus whatever Star Citizen modules get released.

tuna_love · Dec 9, 2015

isn't this spose to be on psvr? if they can get it to locked 60 on ps4 im sure they can manage a decent framerate on xbox.

Disaster Nebraska · Dec 9, 2015

Has some technical issues on PC, but as long as it runs well on Xbox One this is a good holiday game. Hope people give it a chance and enjoy it; I had a blast with it on PC.

camac002 · Dec 9, 2015

Remember when "low" settings used to mean a complete and utterly barren world, zero shadows, lighting. Adjusting PC settings on Games like Crysis 3, Ryse made me realise that even if not preferred, many games these days are still decent looking at Low.

Tatsumi Oga · Dec 9, 2015

Certain parts didn't look as good as others, but most of this looks rather good. If this istruly Xbox One, it looks really damn fine.

Game Preview always offers a trial of an hour or so, right?

DJSebolski · Dec 9, 2015

PC trailer looked promising too, and you know how that worked out....

Evolution of Metal · Dec 9, 2015

Keep the Early Access unoptimized alphas away from Xbox/PS. I am for Ark being deployed on consoles, but only as a moderately finished V1 product.

Worked out amazing. Sold around 2 1/2 million copies so far and has the 8th most concurrent players on Steam as we speak.

zethren · Dec 10, 2015

I've never even heard of this game before now, what the hell did I just watch? Dinosaurs, sci-fi, medieval knights, giant snakes, etc. This looks amazing.
