To protect the environment, large companies in the United States have competed in recent years to reduce carbon emissions, such as changing all packaging to recyclable paper, etc. Now Microsoft seems to be thinking about gamers, hoping that gamers can consume less power.
On Xbox Insider Hub, the new Xbox Insider app that has early access to Xbox, Microsoft is conducting a power-saving survey for Xbox and PC games. Ask the player if he is willing to reduce the number of frames and the resolution to save energy.
As one of the leading companies in the United States, Microsoft has spared no effort in this regard. In the recent Xbox series update, the options for power settings have been re-adjusted and can be more energy efficient in standby and power saving modes.
Since it’s still in the voting phase, it’s hard to say how much power can be saved by lowering the game from 60 FPS to 30 FPS, so it’s unclear whether Microsoft will actually do this. But if enough gamers are willing to answer, maybe Microsoft will actually invent this model in the future.
