What you need to know
- BioShock: The Collection is a first-person shooter compilation.

Today, when I turned on my Xbox One X, I noticed that BioShock, BioShock 2, and BioShock Infinite all had updates. I naturally assumed that it was just to fix bugs and performance, but when I launched them, I realized that they were Xbox One X Enhanced. It's unclear when the updates rolled out, but they're available right now if you own BioShock: The Collection.
The games appear to be running at 4K resolution, or a resolution that's very close to 4K in the case of BioShock Infinite, because they're incredibly sharp. While the menus are a little blurry, the game looks amazing. It's retained the 60 FPS presentation so playing BioShock: The Collection is an absolute treat.
According to an analysis by VG Tech, the first BioShock renders at native 4K resolution on Xbox One X and 1440p on PlayStation 4 Pro. The team is conducting other analyses on the remaining titles and will post their results soon.
BioShock: The Collection was a part of Xbox Game Pass, but it's left the service. Sometimes, titles return so you never know. You can always purchase it for $50 on the Microsoft Store if you don't own it already. The Microsoft Store is also now showing that the games are Xbox One X Enhanced.
