The new images show scenes teeming with Pokémon, which some players believe could indicate a potential increase in the Pokémon's spawn rate. However, even though the captures are in 4K , experts point out that the Switch 2 may not natively support this resolution, raising further questions about the update's true impact.
Furthermore, the franchise's official subreddit received a lot of criticism. One user commented that the game " didn't need an update, but rather a new art director ." Others bluntly stated that " the game is still ugly ," even with the graphical improvements .
On the other hand, some celebrate the free update. After all, in an age where additional content is often paid for, this initiative represents a positive step. Furthermore, there's an expectation that Scarlet and Violet's world will become more immersive with the promised changes.
