The long-awaited release of Crysis Remastered is now officially available on Xbox, but unfortunately it appears to be having some major visual issues at launch on Xbox One X specifically.
As detailed by various early adopters and a review over at Forbes, running the game with Ray-Tracing and HDR settings seemingly causes huge visual glitches, which you can see an example of in the tweet below:
Digital Foundry's John Linneman also says the issues have "been a nightmare" in his experience with the game so far, but he's been talking to developer Crytek and "it sounds like most of them have already been fixed."
The studio reportedly plans to release a day-one patch to iron out some problems, and has told Forbes that it has identified a graphics settings issue in the Xbox One build, with a patch set to arrive early next week.

Running Raytracing in this game on the previous-gen consoles was always a curious decision to me.
In Digitalfoundry video, the game already showed some glitches on consoles.
So am I right in thinking this only happens in ray tracing mode and that the other modes work just fine? I was just about to buy this but I may hold off until the patch fixes the issue.
@MaccaMUFC Digital Foundry has just put out a quick video of the game's day one performance on Xbox One X:

@FraserG Thanks, I’ll just buy it next week after it’s been patched.
How do you screw up a remaster? Ugh Crytek. 🙄
They should give us a Ryse 2 to make up for it!!! ⚔️
Why delay the game if they weren't going to fix its issues for launch?
Does it play ok if you have ray-tracing turned off? I downloaded this today (couldn’t resist at £25!) but haven’t had a chance to play it yet. Gonna fire it up tonight.
It obviously doesn’t run crysis 🙊
@TheNewButler how do you go about doing this?
@TheNewButler cheers 👍 will try and do that this afternoon. Does it matter if you have started the game you’re trying to get a refund for?
@TheNewButler Great, cheers again 👍
Update; have submitted request for refund. Have to wait up to 72 hours for outcome.
so sad they deliver a delayed game with issues
shame Digital Foundry didn't do a comparison video on all console versions like they normally do, seeing how passionate they are about the series this feels very strange
FFS, Crytek ...
They should just release Crysis on XSS/X and PS5.
