Dead By Daylight is laggy As hell on Xbox One!!!!

I've been playing DBD a lot on Xbox One, and I notice, its super laggy in matches at times. I even Factory reset my Xbox One, and that being this is the only game that does this. Does anyone on Xbox One Or PS4 have this issue?

    I play on a series x and it runs a lot better, worth the upgrade if you can get one.

    If they are selling the game for it, the game should work for it. Hopefully they fix the issue.

    It's because BHVR can't optimize their game.

    My brother owns an original 2013 Xbox, and Cold War runs at 30-45 FPS.

    DBD runs on my One X at 20ish FPS.

    BHVR promised to address Console optimization in March 2019, I'd really like to know what happened to that.

    DBD has been a hot mess on the last Gen consoles for a while now and I'd be absolutely shocked if they ever fixed it.

    At this point, "optimization" has been promised for over a year with no peep since. They're just gonna run out the clock now and stop talking about it until people just upgrade.
