Depending on the display resolution, you also need to make sure your TV or monitor has an HDMI 2.0 or the newer HDMI 2.1 port which is necessary for 4K 120Hz gameplay. For example, in Rocket League I usually get locked 60 or more if unlocked, however there are moderate drops in to 55-58 and since its such an instant drop, its very noticable. To experience the full potential of 120fps on the Xbox Series X or Series S, you need to make sure your TV or monitor offers at least a 120Hz refresh rate. Nearly all the Unreal Engine titles Ive played (Dishonored 1, Rocket League, Outlast 1 and 2, Insurgency Sandstorm, Bioshock Infinite) has a stuttering/fps drop issue. Unlike gaming monitors that are available for anything from 144Hz to 360Hz, TVs are mostly limited to 60Hz. It’s easy to get confused between the two but simply put, hertz (Hz) refers to the number of times your display refreshes per second, while frames per second (fps) refers to the number of image frames generated by the console. You also need to understand the difference between 120fps and 120Hz. Much like the higher refresh rate on smartphones, you need to experience games at a higher fps to appreciate the hype behind them. At the same time, it requires a lot of power to deliver double the amount of frame rates when compared to 60fps. Having a higher refresh rate ensures a smoother experience with faster response times, which is absolutely essential for competitive games. The new Xbox Series X and Series S pack powerful hardware that’s capable of delivering high frame rates going up to 4K resolution on certain supported games.

But what exactly is the benefit of having 120fps gameplay? Older Xbox consoles were restricted to 30 or 60fps with some exceptions on the last-gen Xbox One X.
