Ori and the Will of the Wisps Patch

A new Ori and the Will of the Wisps update is being made available, optimizing the title for both the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.

The update will be waiting once new Xbox Series X|S players fire up their consoles on November 10th. Aside from offering optimizations on Microsoft’s next-gen consoles, the update also includes PC-specific updates, including new graphic and audio quality modes alongside general performance and image quality improvements across the board.

After the update has been installed on Xbox Series X|S, players will be able to enjoy Moon Studios’ masterpiece in 4K HDR locked at 120FPS on the Series X, and 1080p HDR locked at 120FPS on the Series S. In addition, an optional 4K resolution mode at 60FPS has been added on the Series, whereas an optional 6K supersampled mode (which we wrote about last week) at 60FPS is being made available on the Series X.

Also included with the update are optimizations to greatly reduce loading times and provide nearly instant input response alongside high fidelity audio on both consoles. Down below you’ll find the full release notes.
