Microsoft begins testing Dolby Vision on Xbox Series X/S

The Xbox Series X/S will be the first console to support Dolby Vision Gaming. The program for Xbox Insider starts this week. Dolby Vision is intended to give the game a significant graphical boost with “full-spectrum visuals”.

It provides game updates such as bright highlights, sharp contrast, and more clarity, as well as greater visibility in light and dark conditions.

According to Dolby, it is an automated process. Players do not need to adjust the brightness sliders to adjust their screen. Instead, the best image is always displayed by default.

Testing begins this week on the Xbox Series X / S via the Xbox Insider Alpha Ring. Dolby plans to gather feedback during the trial in preparation for a full release, which he says is “coming soon.” The Xbox will be the first console to support both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

Xbox Insiders should see to it that their Dolby Vision-enabled TV is updated with the latest firmware to enable it. Dolby noted that this feature will not be available on every TV and will require firmware updates in the future.

As part of the program, the Xbox Series X/S will receive a new enhancement that allows for more precise HDR gaming when connected to a Dolby Vision-enabled TV. Dolby said it and Microsoft are working with TV makers to make sure this feature is available on more TVs by the time it is widely released.

This is a big step forward for Microsoft, which continues to double the technical capabilities of the Series X. In our Xbox Series X review, we said: “It’s a very powerful system, once a company’s internal team begins to showcase its power, it can slow down the gaming world.”
