Well not really acutally. It all comes down to the devs focus.
If the game is not trying to be Crysis or Metro or whatever 4k is pretty doable. A JRPG with anime graphics could actually run at 4k.
On PC I can play Borderlands2 @ 4k. I dont have a 4k monitor but I still have the benefit of the high resolution because I see not a singly aliasing "step" etc. (it gets downsampled)
I have yet to encounter a single UnrealEngine3 game I cannot play at 4k. The engine is old and does not need alot of ressources tho. It still does its job because as long as the game has good art style or art direction it looks great.
4k would also be doable on XBO and PS4 but devs chose effects over resolution. I prefer no aliasing and good resolution over effects tho. (Id rather play "artistic" games like SkywardSword with low polycount etc @4k than a Skyrim with crap textures @720p"
