We all know id Software is working on a new update for DOOM that will unleash some of the power under the hood of the Xbox One X, but now Microsoft's updated Xbox One X enhanced list says the DOOM update is "coming soon".

If we remember back to November 2017, Microsoft updated their list of Xbox One X enhanced games with Fallout 4, and then a few weeks later the Xbox One X enhancement update was pushed out for the game. We don't know if DOOM will be running at 4K 30FPS or 1080p 60FPS on higher graphical detail with the Xbox One X enhancement update, but I would prefer 60FPS over 4K, that's for sure.

It would be nice to see the option of 4K 30FPS or 1080p 60FPS, instead of forced 4K 30FPS for a game like DOOM... but we'll have to wait and see.
