The Xbox One X, Microsoft's latest iteration in the Xbox family and the so-called “most powerful console ever”, is looking pretty good. Even at $500, the sheer horsepower in the console promises graphics like we've never seen before. Of course, the real question for both first time consumers and hardcore fans is, “What games should I play on it?” Let's take a look at seven titles that should pique your interest in the Xbox One X, with each promising some kind of 4K resolution support.

Forza Motorsport 7

The crème de la crème of Microsoft's Xbox One X library, Forza Motorsport 7 is pegged to deliver native 4K at 60 FPS with HDR on the console. Of course, since this is the Forza Motorsport series, you can expect highly realistic gameplay with more than 700 cars, 30 different locations to race on and dynamic weather. If that weren't enough, you can now customize your driver this time around and drive Porsche cars. Look out for the game's release on October 3rd for Xbox One, Xbox One X and Windows 10 PC. Be warned though – you'll need 100 GB of HDD space for all those 4K assets.

Project CARS 2

Slightly Mad Studios isn't kidding around with the Xbox One X version of Project CARS 2. It will run in native 4K resolution and 60 FPS on the console which means those stunning cars will look even more sumptuous in Ultra HD. Project CARS as a franchise is meant for hardcore racing fans though so if you want about 182 cars with tons of customization and 121 different layouts spread across 46 tracks, then the sequel is for you. Project CARS 2 arrives on September 22nd for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Halo 5: Guardians

Forget about the somewhat disappointing campaign for a moment. Halo 5: Guardians is a Halo title that finally evolves the series' multiplayer formula. It's faster but still reliant on gun skill and positioning. The sheer range of custom games, maps and modes with even more content on the way makes it hard to pass up. Even if Warzone, the default PvEvP mode which relies on REQ cards, isn't your thing then you team up against waves of AI foes in Warzone Firefight instead. Halo 5: Guardians will support “true 4K” on the Xbox One X, which we'll take to mean native 4K. Hopefully the 60 FPS frame rate carries over as well.

Gears of War 4

With numerous updates, a great if formulaic campaign and Horde mode, Gears of War 4 is a great return to the series' roots. Things get a little weird on the Xbox One X though. You'll have access to 4K resolution at 30 FPS for the campaign and Horde mode. However, for Versus players, there's 4K at 60 FPS. If that weren't enough, The Coalition is promising better textures and reflections along with HDR for those with 1080p screens. Regardless, it's Gears and it'll look great in 4K so try it out for yourself.

Middle-Earth: Shadow of War

Monolith's Middle-Earth: Shadow of War is promising a much bigger gameplay scale compared to its predecessor. As such, we don't blame the developer for going with 30 FPS on Xbox One X since it intends to polish the graphics. Native 4K and HDR support is a given though so even if it isn't in silky smooth 60 FPS, we'll still get to witness Tolkien's universe in breath-taking detail. Middle-Earth: Shadow of War arrives on October 10th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus

It wouldn't be an Xbox launch without one major shooter to showcase its power. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus may not be the next Halo or Gears but it does offer an expansive new campaign with tons of Nazi slaying. The Xbox One X version will no doubt look great with HDR support and 4K compatibility (though whether it's native 4K or not is yet to be confirmed). Would it be too much to wish for 60 FPS as well? Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus releases on October 27th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC so we'll find out for ourselves.

Forza Horizon 3

If realistic racing isn't your forte or you just want to have more fun with the exotic cars in Forza, then Forza Horizon 3 is your ticket. While it's not confirmed to run at 60 FPS on the console (the base game is locked at 30 FPS on Xbox One), the open racing sim will be in 4K resolution. Given how Forza Horizon 3 is one of the best games of last year with its huge open world, tons of customization options for races, sheer variety of cars and beautiful visuals, we'd say it's worth picking up for Xbox One X.
