What will next-gen games look like running on the Xbox Series S? Right now, it’s a big question mark, as pretty much all trailers for next-gen Xbox games are shown running on PC or the more-powerful Xbox Series X. Well, the folks at Codemasters have done us a service, and provided a quick peek at Dirt 5 running specifically on Xbox Series S hardware at 1440p (the maximum resolution for most games on the system). Check it out below.
Looking okay, but overall, fairly current-gen. Granted, Dirt 5 isn’t going to be most cutting-edge next-gen game, but I feel like other trailers have looked better than the one above. Case in point, Codemasters also released the following fresh look at the next-gen version of the game.
