Original Story:
At the moment, Atlus has yet to release any official patch notes for this update. However, from our testing, we have found that there is now a new option in the settings that allows you to turn off dash effects, which is the motion blur you get while dashing. Additionally, though we aren’t 100% certain, it does appear that the game does run at a smoother framerate on the PS5 than it did before this update. We might be wrong, though performance was something that many have pointed out. The PS5 version doesn’t have any major dips, though it did look less smoother compared to the PS4 version. There doesn’t appear to be any additional options beyond the Dash one, for those hoping for PS5 Pro support, though that doesn’t mean it’s not there with this update if it’s simply to allow PSSR support.
Either way, we’re glad to see that Atlus is improving the game further, especially with the new dash effect option.
Should Atlus release any official notes, we’ll be sure to update the story above with them. As for those wondering when our review will hit the site, expect it soon!
