Highguard’s Xbox launch has sparked fresh discussion about how the game performs on Microsoft’s two current consoles. The title, developed by veterans of Titanfall and Apex Legends and released as a free‑to‑play experience, has seen polarized responses — and a recent comparison outlines clear differences between Xbox Series X and Series S builds. Players deciding which console to use will want to weigh visual fidelity against target performance.

  • Series X generally presents stronger visuals and a more consistent frame‑rate, highlighting the console’s extra GPU headroom.
  • Series S shows compromises in texture detail and resolution, reflecting its lower raw power but still aiming to preserve core gameplay.
  • Both versions remain playable: the comparison suggests the game is optimized to run on each platform, though with different priorities.
  • Review reactions remain mixed overall, so performance impressions are only one part of the broader conversation around Highguard.
