Experience HDR and 4K with the Insects Demo Experience on Xbox One X

<div><div class="media_block"><img src="https://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/insectsHERO-hero.jpg" class="media_thumbnail"></div>
<p>When you pick up your Xbox One X on November 7, you’ll experience many of the latest cutting-edge technology features that will be focused in gaming for years to come like 4K Ultra HD, High Dynamic Range, or HDR as it’s better known, as well as Spatial Audio. To help showcase these new features to you, even if you may not have the 4K display to run, we developed an interactive demo known as “<a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/insects-an-xbox-one-x-enhanced-experience/9p798w4vdt91" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Insects</a>.”</p>
<p>Originally developed by the Xbox Advanced Technology Group for game developers, “Insects” was designed to help teams easily see and hear just how the dramatic the differences can be between the various technologies.</p>
<p>Over time, the team realized how fun and effective the experience was, and so we’re making it publicly available the same day that Xbox One X launches, on November 7 to be viewed on your console. “Insects” will be available to download from the Microsoft Store on your console.</p>
<p>If you don’t have an Xbox One X to experience this interactive demo, we have included a variety of screenshots here that showcase all the elements of the video to give you a sense of what features like HDR and 4K bring to your games.</p>
<p>On Xbox One X, the beauty of “Insects” is the option to toggle between the various formats. Once you’ve completed the initial Guided Tour, you can, at any time, turn 4K on or off, as well as HDR and Spatial Audio. You can also pause the experience and zoom in on various elements.</p>
<p>Better yet, you can even change the time of day and alter the colors of the ladybug and flowers, all while toggling 4K, HDR, and Spatial Audio on or off to your heart’s delight. Also, if you download Insects on an Xbox One X and display it on a 1080p display, switching 4K mode on and off will showcase super-sampling in all its beauty.</p>
<p>If you really want to dig into the details, you can even use Pixel Highlighting to show you what areas of the scene are being affected by HDR or Wide Color Gamut. We think you’ll find it remarkable to see the detail pop into focus when you turn 4K back on, or see the range of detail and color when you do the same with HDR. Our personal favorite is switching HDR on and off at night and looking at the moon. It’s such a simple, but great illustration of the technology.</p>
<p>We hope you enjoy <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/insects-an-xbox-one-x-enhanced-experience/9p798w4vdt91" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the “Insects” demo experience on Xbox One X</a> and we can’t wait for you to feel true power when the world’s most powerful console launches on November 7.</p>
