Plants vs Zombies GW2 load times on Series X have dramatically increased

    Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to find a resolution to this. It would be good to see if factory resetting your console will resolve this. If you don't mind trying that, let me know what happens. Otherwise, at this time, we're not aware of a way to return the load times to what they originally were.

      Again thanks @EA_Aljo. To be honest I think I'll live with it, as factory re-setting my XBox will cause bit of a pain in having to reload everything (games, settings, and what have you). I can live with a 4 minute wait. As long as I can play the game, that's the main thing.

        @PerniciousPea That's where we ended up with it. We just got used to the load time for that specific game. Not ideal, but whatever.
