When annonced it was made clear that the new DirectX 12 API would be compatible with Xbox One (or the other way around, rather). For graphics junkies the news caused celebration, but now it seems they busted out their party hats prematurely.

Why? Because in actuality the improvements will be rather small on Xbox One's part, based on a brief statement made by none other than Xbox boss Phil Spencer: "It will help developers on XBOX One. It's not going to be a massive change but will unlock more capability for devs", Spencer said on Twitter.

Lets hope it's enough to make a all little more magic nonetheless...
