Tango Gameworks’ breakout hit Hi-Fi Rush has received a new update, adding Photo Mode to the game. It allows one to pause the action and take pictures of Chai, adding different filters, effects and frames to spruce things up.
Of course, you can also have Chai’s friends in pictures, adjusting the camera angle and their poses as you see fit. The update also has several bug fixes, particularly for UE4 Fatal Errors caused by a specific shader setting and the Sound Device Enumerating Process. Bugs which caused progress to be blocked in some chapters have also been fixed.
QA-1MIL, the first real boss that players fight, has had its behavior adjusted and an issue which caused the SPECTRA Rooms to display incorrect Final Results if the player exited after auto-saving has also been fixed. Check out the full patch notes below for more details.
Hi-Fi Rush is available for Xbox Series X/S and PC. Check out our review here for more details.
