"Perhaps the most notable feature is the introduction of default game profiles, which are available in a beta mode starting today. These are performance profiles tailored to specific games so they run perfectly on the handhelds. Once enabled, the software will automatically balance the frame rate and power consumption to strike the perfect balance. This means that players won't have to head into the settings to make manual adjustments."
"These profiles are currently available for 40 of the more popular games on the platform, including Fortnite, Gears of War: Reloaded and Hollow Knight: Silksong. Microsoft says that using the default game profile while playing Silksong, for instance, will add an hour of battery life. To that end, the profiles are only used when playing on battery. I hope this becomes a regular part of the Ally experience and comes to many more titles."
Microsoft released software updates for ASUS ROG Xbox Ally and Ally X handheld consoles, introducing default game profiles in beta that automatically balance frame rate and power to optimize performance and battery life. Forty popular titles currently have tailored profiles, including Fortnite, Gears of War: Reloaded and Hollow Knight: Silksong; using a default profile for Silksong can add roughly an hour of battery life and profiles apply only on battery. A new search filter ranks games by device performance. Gamepad responsiveness, game library loading, and cloud gaming page responsiveness were improved, alongside bug fixes and other enhancements.
