Fixes and optimizations
PC
NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 Frame Generation Support (Auto Mode): When DLSS frame generation is set to Auto, the system will dynamically adjust frame generation targets based on your monitorโs refresh rate. This locks the frame rate as smoothly as possible to match the screen refresh rate, providing a much more stable and smooth visual experience.
Kโun-Lun: Shenlong Arena โ 18 VS. 18 Reward for destruction
Optimization for Xbox Series S is complete! Once maintenance is complete this week, this explosive game mode and map will be fully playable on console.
Heroes
1. Cyclops Optical Lift: Fixed an issue where the horizontal offset distance of Cyclops Optical Lift could differ due to client frame rate changes. The X-Men leader now has firm control of his optic beams; accuracy is critical!
2. Magneto Magnetic Bug: Fixed a rare magnetic field bug that would cause Metal Shield cast on teammates to sometimes instantly disappear upon cast. The Master of Magnetismโs defenses had once again become completely impenetrable.
Cards
Lower Manhattan: Removed some complex collision geometry from the map. Weโve ironed out a few places where characters could get stuck or accidentally go off-bounds.
