The Outer Worlds from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division lets you to navigate Halcyon, a futuristic space colony, in a visually-lush single-player role-playing game. The title lets you develop a character over time based on your playstyle. The game can apply features to your character based on reoccurring traits and or flaws. The end result is someone who has unusual quirks.
When a major AAA game launches, buyers want to know how it runs on Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro (PS4 Pro). We reached out to publisher Private Division and a spokesperson for the company said that the game was "4K on Xbox One, no enhancements for PS4 Pro." We followed up for further clarification and shall update you as soon as we receive a response. Hopefully, the public relations agency isn't mistaken because this is quite unusual for a major AAA game.

This is definitely surprising because, usually, the PS4 Pro also gets some enhancements. This is similar to the situation with We Happy Few and Gearbox Publishing. The game ran at 4K resolution on Xbox One X, but only 1080p on PS4 Pro. This gave it a muddy presentation on Sony's machine.
If you aren't playing this game on PC, be sure to check it out on Xbox One X, as it promises to be the best experience from a visual standpoint. It's always great to see developers taking advantage of the additional power, even in PS4 Pro users see none of that benefit.
