Switchback VR Developer Investigating Game's Iffy PSVR2 Visuals | Push Square
The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR is a huge disappointment, as illustrated in our review – and one of its biggest issues is just how blurry it looks. While the game has been developed exclusively for PSVR2, it barely looks like a step-up from PSVR, with muddy, middling visuals and even the odd performance hiccup. It’s not the only problem with the game, but it’s a pretty big one!
To its credit, Supermassive has now released a statement, stressing that it’s investigating issues and is accepting bug reports from players. “So far, a potential cause of the blurring has been identified, with other issues still undergoing testing and reproduction,” it wrote on social media. It’s encouraging fans to share feedback through its Zendesk Portal.
