Pearl Abyss’s new open-world action-adventure game Crimson Desert has enjoyed a fairly positive reception, with one major caveat: Some PlayStation 5 users are saying the game looks really, really bad on Sony’s current-gen console. Specifically, these players complain of blurry graphics that make it hard to enjoy the game’s beautiful scenery and keep track of what’s happening in combat.
The good news is the source of the problem seems to have been identified, and it’s a fairly easy fix. The issue seems to be the game struggling with the PS5’s 120hz mode when connected to a TV that doesn’t support 4K120. If you’re playing Crimson Desert on PS5 and everything looks like a blobby, melting mess, follow these steps to fix the issue:
- Open the settings menu on your PS5
- Select “Video Output”
- Turn the “Enable 120Hz Output” setting off
Pearl Abyss’s PR and marketing director Will Powers cosigned this method in a recent X post, agreeing that TVs lacking support for 120Hz output are likely the source of the problem.
