In a recentdiscussionover on r/HarryPotterGame, many players have reported a multitude of issues withHogwarts Legacysince the PS5 Pro patch was introduced.
“Maybe just a misconception, but since the PS5 Pro update ofHogwarts Legacy, I feel like the PS5 version in fidelity mode has suffered a graphical downgrade with less sharp textures,” the initial post read.

“Flickering textures, slow loading textures, low res shadow maps at random places? Yep…,” one usercommented.
Anotheradded: “This has been one of the most obnoxious things about this game to me since launch.
Every few months there’s another patch breaking or downgrading the graphics in some way and it’s so annoying.
The game looked so beautiful at launch but it’s not the same anymore and it’s a shame.”
