The backward compatibility team at Xbox is continuing to work its magic. Larry Hryb, also known as Major Nelson, has been teasing some big things for the Xbox Series X/S lately, but on his most recent podcast he highlighted some updates, celebrations, and more that have come to the Xbox. One of the things he talked about was the retroactive frame rate boosts that have been and will continue to come to Xbox games. A particular game that came up which has stirred up interest within the gaming community is 2014's Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Many fans are eagerly awaiting concrete news for the next Dragon Age title, as it has been seven years since the last entry into the series. Small details have come out from time to time, but while many are waiting, enjoying some of the older games is a nice way to pass the time. Being able to play Dragon Age: Inquisition in a state better than previously possible would perhaps be an even better way.

Xbox's Jason Ronald joined Major Nelson last week to discuss features of the Xbox Mobile App, and he returned again this week to talk about FPS boosts for backward-compatible games on the Xbox Series X/S. The goal is to double up the frame rate of Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles so that those games can run smoother on the next-generation consoles. This process is done on the platform side, so the developers do not have to be involved at all. However, this is also done very carefully because there are some games in which this cannot be done. Ronald claims that during the testing phase it was found that some animations and engines were unable to handle the faster frame rate adjustments.

The Xbox team is carefully selecting games to boost their FPS. The first batch will include games such as Far Cry 4, Watch Dogs 2, Sniper Elite 4, and UFC 4. In the podcast, Hryb mentions The Game Awards 2014 Game of the Year Winner Dragon Age: Inquisition as one of the FPS-boosted titles, but it does not seem to be ready yet.

According to Hryb, some things change last minute, and that may be the case with Dragon Age: Inquisition. It could be the case that the additional testing revealed that the RPG was not a fit with the FPS boost, and that the animation and engine could not handle it. However, it could also be the case that the game will simply be ready in the coming weeks or months. Dragon Age: Inquisition is also free and playable through Xbox Game Pass thanks to the EA Play agreement with Microsoft.

Dragon Age: Inquisition is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
