Microsoft outlines Smart Delivery details
Players will be able to carry progress from Smart Delivery titles on Xbox One to Xbox Series X
Microsoft has outlined a few new details about how its Smart Delivery system will work for the Xbox Series X, specifically around transferring progress.
In a blog post today, the hardware maker confirmed that titles using Smart Delivery will not only allow users to buy a game once and play it across both Xbox One and Xbox Series X systems, but that progress will also be saved across systems -- including game libraries, progression, and achievements.
The system also allows any games that release optimized versions for the Xbox Series X to automatically offer that version for owners of the title on that hardware for no additional cost.
Microsoft's Smart Delivery system is planned for all first-party titles that are being optimized for Xbox Series X, as well as any third-party titles that opt into the system, with the following titles already confirmed:
- Halo Infinite
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Assassin's Creed Valhalla
- Destiny 2
- Dirt 5
- Scarlet Nexus
- Chorus
- Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2
- Yakuza: Like a Dragon
- The Ascent
- Call of the Sea
- Gears 5
- Second Extinction
- Metal: Hellslinger
