Nintendo's Switch 2 update for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition launched last week to initial acclaim for higher frame-rates and improved assets, but the mood has soured as players report problems with how the game is being upscaled. A growing number of users are asking Nintendo to reimburse the $5 upgrade amid discussions about visible visual inconsistencies and other technical concerns.

  • Initial reaction: Early impressions praised the smoother performance and refreshed visuals before issues came to light.
  • Reported problems: Players have flagged upscaling and visual anomalies after closer inspection of the new build.
  • Refund push: Community members are requesting refunds for the upgrade fee; coverage of the backlash has been noted by Eurogamer.
