Xbox's Jason Ronald Hints at FPS Boost Return With Cryptic Comment
Five years after the program ended, Xbox's Jason Ronald suggests the company is working on something related to frame rate improvements for older games.

Xbox's Jason Ronald has offered a cryptic hint about the possible return of FPS Boost, the company's program for improving frame rates on older games running on Xbox Series X and Series S.
When asked about FPS Boost, Ronald said "the team is cooking on a number of things." The comment offers little clarity but suggests activity behind the scenes at Xbox related to performance enhancements.
FPS Boost officially ended in 2021, five years before Ronald's recent comments. The program had upgraded frame rates for numerous older Xbox games, making them run smoother on current-generation hardware without requiring developer involvement.
Ronald's vague language leaves the door open to several possibilities. Xbox could be preparing to revive the FPS Boost initiative, develop an alternative frame rate improvement system, or work on something entirely different that Ronald was hesitant to discuss. Without further confirmation, the actual scope of what the team is "cooking on" remains unclear.
