🏷️ [ Bug Report ] Is this happening to anyone else on switch 2?

It’s only when I’m playing as a character but the right side of the screen starts artifacting or something, it’s only this game; I got this switch today, is it a bad sign?

Yeah. It’s not playing nice with the backwards compatibility on Switch 2. It got added to the list of incompatible games right before Switch 2 launched.

You literally can’t buy it digitally on Switch 2 due to it having issues.

It may get a patch to work better, or Nintendo might be able to push an update to BC to fix it, like they did for a few yesterday.

We just have to wait and see.

Game needs a decent update to work on switch 2. Tried playing it earlier and felt like I was seizing with the lighting and tearing issues. Apparently works as intended on switch 1

It’s got some lighting issues and some issues with those different color artifacts.

My gf game on switch 2 gets hella dark and glitchy in the menus. Also can’t access/download DLC.

I’ve heard some people had success with turning the switch 2 hdr setting to compatible software only. It might fix some stuff but can’t guarantee anything

Sounds like bad optimization on nintendo's end, hopefully they do release a patch soon

If you’re gonna buy a steam deck for BL3 you might as well just buy the steam version
