The 900p resolution originally targeted for the Xbox One version of Diablo 3 was deemed "unacceptable" by Microsoft, according to Blizzard's production director John Hight.
"We did find it challenging early on to get it to 1080p," Hight told Digital Foundry. "That's why we made the decision to drop to 900. That's what we demoed and were showing around E3 time. And Microsoft was just like, 'This is unacceptable. You need to figure out a way to get a better resolution.' So we worked with them directly, they gave us a code update to let us get to full 1080p."
Blizzard released a title update to bump the resolution to 1080p earlier this week which, according to Digital Foundry, results in an "absolutely identical" image quality to that of the PS4 version.
