[Update 17/10] After publishing the article below, Private Division has confirmed that The Outer Worlds will be enhanced on both the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. The game will include 4K textures on PC and Xbox One X, while it is being upsampled to 4K from 1440p on the PS4 Pro.

　　"It looks great across all platforms and we’re excited for players to experience The Outer Worlds on October 25th", the publisher wrote.

　　[Original story] Obsidian Entertainment’s upcoming The Outer Worlds won’t be enhanced on Sony’s PlayStation 4 Pro, the game’s publisher has said.

　　While the RPG is being released on multiple platforms, only the Xbox One X version will be “enhanced”. At least, that’s what a spokesperson from publisher Private Division told Windowscentral. "4K on Xbox One, no enhancements for PS4 Pro”, he said.

　　Quite surprising, since normally, both the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X versions will receive enhancements in some way. Hopefully, the game will receive a PS4 Pro patch post-launch. According to Microsoft's list of Xbox One X enhanced games, The Outer Worlds will support "4K Ultra HD" on the X. Specific Xbox One X enhancements are unknown at this point.

　　Obsidian Entertainment was acquired by Microsoft back in 2018 and is now one of the first party developers as part of Xbox Game Studios, which is why it will be included with the Xbox Game Pass subscription (on both console and PC).

　　The Outer Worlds is releasing later this month on October 25th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC via the Epic Games Store and Microsoft Store. The Nintendo Switch version is being released later on.

　　The Outer Worlds is a new single-player sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division. As you explore the furthest reaches of space and encounter a host of factions all vying for power, who you decide to become will determine the fate of everyone in Halcyon. In the corporate equation for the colony, you are the unplanned variable.
