Switch 2 Docked mode shadows broken

Shadows on the switch 2 version are borderline crushing them selves after the patch today.

2 screenshots attached showing the lighter easier to see handheld mode shadows, and the second shows the docked mode rendering the shadows with way to much black crush.

    More samples showing the dark spots in the game are rendering way to dark now. Replicators are overshadowed, some of the structures are literally black blocks from the black crush.

    Some more this is how Kings canyon looks now on switch 2 docked, this is straight up unplayable levels of black crush.

  • After the recent update on Switch2's Apex, shadows are somehow displaying way too dark, making it almost impossible to see anything inside Storm Point's indoor areas! Fix this already! I'm going crazy!

    Hey MaiFault​,

    This issue is one the team's aware of and should have addressed in an upcoming patch, though we aren't able to provide a specific ETA just yet.

    You can keep an eye on this thread or Respawn's X/Twitter account for updates as we have any other details to share. Thanks for the posts to make sure this was brought to our attention and for the patience while we're getting this cleared up!

    I hope "soon", this makes certain parts of maps literally unplayable cause you in a black room.

    My fear is your going to make it unplayable for the entire season.

    And how does something so obvious make it into prod, this isnt some minor code wonky interaction, it takes 30 seconds on any map to know its broken.

    This took what i considered one of the best looking/performing switch 2 ports and turned it practically unplayable slop.

    Yeah, hoping we are getting this fixed quick. This is literally competitive disadvantage for Switch 2 players, because it is much harder to see enemies.
