We’ve noticed a visual issue in Photo Mode where the post-processing effects aren’t displaying accurately. We’re working on a fix and will have it resolved as soon as possible. Thanks for your understanding!

My xbox version just forced a 108GB update on me, can’t find out any information about this. Useless Wild Card!
Aberration played well yesterday…
