I do not imply to alarm you, however some Last Fantasy 16 gamers on PS5 have not too long ago discovered their good little playthroughs invaded by massive black blobs or packing containers that threaten to smash poor Clive’s day. No, this is not some DLC, it seems to be to be a part of some graphical points that’ve adopted a current replace to the console’s firmware, which Sony and Sq. Enix have stated they’re trying into.
Taking a look at Reddit or Twitter, you will discover quite a few posts with gamers exhibiting off or speaking about issues they’ve run into. My private favourite is the clip I’ve embedded beneath of somebody having to outrun a void that is seemingly determined to chase them round a bit and momentarily swallow Mr Rosfield entire.
“The PS5 system replace yesterday is inflicting main graphical bugs in FFXVI throughout some cutscenes and parts of sport play,” one participant wrote of this specific subject in a tweet, “Bug progresses to blacking out the display, briefly receded by opening the energetic time lore menu.”
Others have reported having their consoles undergo a sudden exhausting shutdown halfway via taking part in the sport after the deployment of the newest PS5 firmware replace, with one Reddit consumer writing: I’ve had the identical factor yesterday, full exhausting shutdown after a cutscene, even needed to rebuild database and restore exterior HDD like there had been an influence outage. Not taking part in once more it till the sport will get patched.”
Fortunately, Sony and Sq. Enix already look to be on the case, with a tweet from the official Last Fantasy account studying: “Following the current launch of the PlayStation 5 system replace, there have been studies of the sport crashing and graphical points. We’re at the moment working with SIE to analyze, and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience brought on. Please await our additional updates.”
So, there you go. Hopefully Clive and co do not get consumed by the void too many instances earlier than a repair arrives. Possibly this a warning that Sq. Enix will ship that very same void after anybody who instantly begins making significantly bizarre mods for the sport as soon as it hits PC in the present day.
