The Nintendo Switch 2 edition of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition has finally arrived, bringing with it a slew of visual improvements that are sure to delight fans of the series. However, as our hands-on experience has shown, these enhancements are not without their drawbacks.

One of the most notable issues is the blurry, smeary effect that plagues the game's textures, particularly environmental details and character faces at certain distances. This problem is exacerbated during movement, which, as you can imagine, occurs frequently throughout the game.
