I den senaste podcasten från Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb berättar Xbox-bossen Phil Spencer att Destiny kommer få högre upplösning till Xbox One. Detta sedan Bungie bestämt sig för att använda den ökade prestandan som blev tillgänglig sedan Microsoft bestämde sig för att frigöra resurserna som reserverats för kameran så utvecklarna får mer digitala hästkrafter.
Under intervjun lät Spencer hur utvecklare kan komma att nyttja detta samt berättade att Microsoft kommer frigöra ännu mer prestanda framledes:
"This was a point where we actually looked at the GPU reserve that we had set aside when we launched. And you always set aside these reserves not exactly knowing how people are going to use the reserves, and we've got more work to do to bring the reserve down as we get more efficient with stuff we're doing in the platform."
"This was a time when we wanted to give developers a choice on how much of the reserve, the Kinect reserve, they wanted to leave in the system. If they know how they're going to use Kinect, or if they're going to not use Kinect in their game, we wanted them to have the option at a game side to decide how much of that reserve will wait - will remain."</i>
Spencer passade även på att förtydliga att man inte behöver koppla loss Kinect-kameran för att få den extra prestandan, vilket många trott på diverse spelforum och sociala medier.
"It has nothing to do with Kinect being plugged in, in fact everyone should leave Kinect plugged in, because as soon as the game isn't running anymore, you quit the game, you go back to the dash, you are going to have all the great Kinect functionality that you ever had, and you can boot a Kinect game and the Kinect will continue to work - it'll have no impact on the game that decides off the back end that it's going to lower the reserve that's set in."
Till berättade Spencer som ovan nämnt hur Bungie tänker nyttja den extra prestandan, där de ska: "they're going to up the resolution of Destiny based on this change. So I think it's just a great time for us."
Även Insomniac har tydligen glatts åt mer resurser, och de ska enligt Spencer: "use the increased capability that lowering the reserve will have to actually make a more vibrant and alive gameplay space."
