Nintendo is offering refunds for the recent Switch 2 upgrade of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition due to negative feedback concerning its visual performance. Priced at £4.19/$4.99, the upgrade was intended to enhance graphics with 4K support and improved frame rates. However, many players have expressed disappointment, claiming that the graphics have degraded rather than improved, leading them to request refunds. Players report that despite the supposed enhancements, the game's visuals appear subpar compared to the original Wii U version. The backlash has prompted Nintendo to reevaluate the upgrade's quality and offer refunds to dissatisfied customers.

What are the complaints about the Xenoblade Chronicles X Switch 2 upgrade?

Players have complained that the graphics of the upgraded version look worse than the original, citing issues like poor image quality and long-range textures that don't meet expectations. These concerns have led many to seek refunds from Nintendo, which the company is now granting.

Xenoblade Chronicles X, originally released on the Wii U, is a critically acclaimed action RPG developed by Monolith Soft. It features an expansive open world and offers a unique blend of combat, exploration, and character customization. The Definitive Edition aims to enhance the experience for newer consoles, but initial feedback suggests it's falling short of the quality players were hoping for with the Switch 2 upgrade.
