When Xbox boss Phil Spencer was asked on Twitter if 4K support will be mandatory for games on the Project Scorpio he said:

"We'll talk more about this later, but we never said we'd mandate 4K frame buffer, we won't."

Instead devs can go for 1080p full HD with 60fps with "massively upgraded visuals" it seems.

Spencer has already spoken out about the fact Microsoft's aim to let developers do what they want, first and foremost.

"We'll absolutely be open to that," he said. "I think creative freedom and how you want to use the power of the box is something that I always support. I came from first party, as you guys know, so putting the right tools in the hands of the creators, the best creators, is our job as the platform."

"One thing we should make sure that everyone understands is, every game that comes out in the Xbox One family will run on the original Xbox One, Xbox One S and Scorpio."
