How to enable A Plague Tale: Requiem 60 fps performance mode on PS5 and Xbox Series X

by

Thanks to a new patch, you can now play A Plague Tale: Requiem at up to 60 frames per second on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition and Xbox Series X. While the action-adventure title was also released for the Xbox Series S, the performance mode is only available for the two more powerful consoles.

To see how you can unlock 60 fps for the PS5 and Series X versions of this game, you can take a look at this tutorial from Seeking Tech.

1. If you haven’t done so already, you should make sure that you download the latest patch for A Plague Tale: Requiem.

On the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition, you can manually check if there is a new patch available by moving the cursor to the game’s icon on the home screen of the console. Afterwards, you need to press the Options button on the DualSense and then select Check for Update.

For the Xbox Series X, you need to move the cursor to the game’s icon on the Guide menu, home menu or My Games & Apps menu and then press the Menu button. Next, you need to press the Menu button on the Xbox controller and then select Manage Game and Add-Ons. Finally, select Updates in the Manage – Requiem menu.

2. Once the game has been updated, you need to head into the Settings menu in A Plague Tale Requiem. You can do so from either main menu or pause menu. You can pause the game by pressing the Options button on PlayStation or Menu button on Xbox.

Keep in mind that, if you decide to head into Settings from the pause menu, then you will be boot back out to the main menu when you change the graphics mode.

3. In the Settings menu, press the R1 button on the DualSense or RB button on the Xbox controller to change tabs until you get to Graphics

4. From the Graphics tab, you will find the Graphics Mode setting, which has the following description:

Allows adjustment of the graphics mode.

Resolution: Higher resolution and fidelity but limited to 30 frames per second.

Performance: Target 60 frames per second at a lower resolution and fidelity.

So, by playing this game at 60 fps, you will be trading a higher frame rate for less clarity and details.

5. Make sure you select Performance for the Graphics Mode.

6. If you change the Graphics Mode from the pause menu, then you should see the following message:

You must return to the main menu and restart your game to activate the selected graphics options. Do you want to continue?

If you already save your game, then you can select Confirm to go back to the main menu.

If you haven’t saved, then you can back out to the game and then save your progress before going through with the Graphics Mode change.

After returning to the main menu, select the Continue option to load back into your last save and then continue from where you left off. This time, you will be able to play the game at up to 60 fps on your PS5 or Series X.

Should you use the HDMI cable that comes with PS5?

by

The PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digitial Edition console comes with a HDMI cable included inside their packaging box. So, should you use this included cable or can you use something else? You can find out in this article from Seeking Tech.

About HDMI 2.1

A HDMI 2.1 cable is included with each PS5 system. This cable is capable of delivering transfer speeds of up to 48 Gbps. Depending on your television set or monitor, you may be able to use the Variable Refresh Rate and 120 FPS features without any compromises or limitations.

If you use a HDMI cable that has a lower specification instead, then you may not be able to take full advantage of VRR or playing games at 120 frames per second due to the slower bandwidth. For the uninformed, Variable Refresh Rate will make games that have inconsistent frame rate look smoother as well as remove any potential screen tearing.

It is also important to note that the HDMI 2.1 cable is also backwards compatible with older HDMI ports. For example, you can use a HDMI 2.1 cable to connect your PlayStation 5 to a HDMI 2.0 port of your TV; however, the bandwidth will be limited to the HDMI 2.0 specification.

How to find identify the PS5 HDMI cable

If you have a bunch of HDMI cables lying around but don’t know which one came with your PlayStation 5, then you need to look for the one with box-shaped connectors at the end:

Our PS5 HDMI cable also came with the following printed on:

  • High Speed HDMI Cable
  • E321011
  • AWM
  • 20276
  • 80°C
  • 30V
  • VW-1
  • LUXSHARE-ICT

Should you use the included HDMI cable for PS5?

Unless you already have an extra HDMI 2.1 cable lying around, we highly recommend using the HDMI cable that came with your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console.

With the 48 Gbps transfer speed, this video cable will allow your console to take full advantage of the Variable Refresh Rate and 120 Hz refresh rate features of your TV or monitor without any compromises.

The cable is also backwards compatible with older HDMI ports. Therefore, you can still use it even if your screen does not support VRR or being able to display games at up to 120 frames per second.

The HDMI 2.1 cable that comes with the PS5 is around 5.5 feet long. If you find that this length is too short to connect your console to your screen based on your current gaming space setup, then you can check out this guide to find longer alternatives.

How to fix ‘can’t use the USB extended storage drive’ error on PS5

by

When you try to connect an external USB drive to your PlayStation 5, you may encounter the following error:

  • “You can’t use the USB extended storage drive with the current connection method. Connect it to the USB Type-A port (SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps).”

To see how you can fix this issue, you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

Why you are seeing this error

This error message will appear when you try to connect the USB Extended Storage Drive to the front-side USB port. The one on the front of both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition is USB 2.0, which has a maximum limit of 480 Mbit/s.

While this bandwidth is good enough for recharging your DualSense controller and transferring small files to a thumb drive, it is not fast enough to move bigger game data files or directly play PS4 games from the external drive.

How to fix the ‘USB extended storage drive with the current connection method’ error

In order to fix this external storage drive problem, you need to take the following steps:

1. If your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console is turned on, then you need to turn it off.

You can do so by pressing the PS logo button on the controller, selecting the Power option located at the bottom menu and then selecting the Turn Off PS5 option.

By turning off the system, you will prevent any potential damage to your USB storage drive. If you try to unplug the external drive while the PS5 is still powered on, then you could cause data corruption and even hardware failure.

2. With the console shut down, wait until your external drive stops spinning. If the drive has a power button, then you should make sure that you turn it off.

3. Next, you need to plug in the USB drive to any of the two USB ports located on the back of your console.

If you have a hard time finding them, they should have the two blue connectors.

These two ports are USB 3.0, which means that they can support transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps.

4. With the external drive connected, you can then turn back on your PS5.

5. If your USB drive uses an external power source, then you may need to manually turn it on as well.

6. The PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition should now be able to detect the USB Storage Drive.

How to fix WD MyPassport PS5 issues

by

When trying to use the Western Digital MyPassport portable external hard drive on your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console, you may notice some issues. These may include the system not being able to detect the drive, your PS5 crashing, games freezing and more.

So, if the MyPassport does not appear to be working correctly on your PS5, then you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

Is MyPassport compatible with PS5?

The WD MyPassport should be compatible with the PlayStation 5.

The older 2016 version, which we used, features a 5400 RPM speed.

On the other hand, the newer 2019 version is faster at 7200 RPM; as a result, you should get better load times.

Both of these should work as USB Extended Storage Drive for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console.

How to fix MyPassport PS5 crashing issues

While these drives are compatible, they may cause your game or console to crash. To fix these stability problems, you can try doing the following:

1. If the external drive is causing the games to crash, then you can try turning off PlayStation 5.

If your console is completely frozen, then you can try pressing and holding the power button on the system until it shuts off. If that doesn’t work, then you can try unplugging the console from the power outlet.

2. Once the console has turned off, we recommend unplugging the MyPassport.

3. Next, turn back out your PS5. It may need to rebuild its database before it can boot up normally.

4. Once your console has boot back up, plug in your hard drive to see if it can run without any issue.

5. If the external drive works, then we recommend that you properly eject it in the future before turning off your PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition to prevent any potential problems.

6. If the PS4 game you are playing is still crashing when being played directly from the MyPassport, then you can try transferring it to the Console Storage to see if it can run more stable from there.

How to fix MyPassport PS5 detection issues

If your PS5 isn’t properly detecting your Western Digital hard drive, then you can try doing the following:

1. If you have been putting your console in rest mode, then you can try turning it off completely. Afterwards, turn the system back on to see if the USB hard drive can be detected.

2. You can also try rebuilding the database of your PS5. In order to do so, you need to take the following steps:

  • Turn off your console.
  • Press and hold the power button on the PS5 until you hear a second beep.
  • Plug in your game controller and then press the PS button to go to the Safe Mode menu.
  • From there, select Clear Cache and Rebuild Database.
  • Finally, select Rebuild Database.

3. Reformatting the MyPassport on another device may help as well.

In order to do so, you can use a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 4 Pro as these will format the drives to exFAT. Of course, you can also use a PC as well for the formatting.

4. If you decide to connect your hard drive to the PC, you can try updating the firmware of the MyPassport to see if doing so will improve its compatibility with the PlayStation 5.

5. Make sure that you have the latest system software installed for your PS5 as well.

6. If the external HDD also does not work on your PC or PS4, then there may be a general hardware issue. In this case, you can try to get it repaired or get a replacement.

Recommended S95C Game Settings Guide

To get the most out of this television screen when it comes to playing video games on your PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition. Xbox Series X and/or Xbox Series S, you need to take the following steps:

1. Once you connect your console to the S95C, the first step you should take is to make sure that you have Game Mode enabled.

In order to do so, go to the Settings menu of your OLED television set and then select All Settings > Connection > Game Mode Settings > Game Mode. Afterwards, you need to set Game Mode to Auto. By doing so, your TV will automatically switch over to this picture setting when it detects that you are playing a video game.

By using Game Mode, you will be able to play games at low input lag on your PS5, Xbox Series X and/or Xbox Series S.

2. If you enable Game Mode, you will also automatically enable the Variable Refresh Rate feature. With that said, you will need to turn this feature on from your PlayStation and/or Xbox as well.

For the PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition system, you need to open the Settings menu of your system and then select Screen and Video > Video Output > VRR. Finally, you should set VRR to Automatic.

On the Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, open the Settings App from the dashboard and then select General > TV & Display Options > Video Modes. Here, you need to make sure that the Allow Variable Refresh Rate setting is selected.

3. To take advantage of the other S95C gaming features, including being able to play games at up to 120 frames per second, you need to do the following:

For the PlayStation platforms, go back to Settings > Screen and Video > Video Output. From this menu, you need to set the 120 Hz, ALLM, 4K Transfer Rate, Deep Color Output and RGB Range settings to Automatic.

With that said, we suggest that you leave this feature off if you are playing on Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S as the Variable Refresh Rate for these consoles will help with games that drop to 40 fps. The Low Frame Rate Compensation feature should also help with games that drop below the 40 frames per second threshold as well.

For the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, VRR is supported within a range of 48 fps to 120 fps. Below that, you may start experiencing some stutters. If the frame rate drops to below 48 frames per second, then you can try enabling Game Motion Plus to see if you prefer playing with this TV feature enabled. From this same menu, you can also adjust the blur and judder levels as well as turn on black frame insertion.

Modern vs. Dynamic vs. Classic Street Fighter 6 controls

by

Street Fighter 6 comes with three different control types that you can choose from. To see what the main differences are between all three setups, you can take a look at this comparison guide from Seeking Tech.

Modern Street Fighter 6 controls

The default control type for Street Fighter 6 is Modern. Unlike the Classic option, the Modern option does not offer different buttons for punches and kicks.

You will also get a Special Move button that makes performing Super Arts a lot easier than having to memorize and input the correct button sequences. By holding down the R2/RT button, you can easily perform assisted combo attacks.

Last but not least, there are also dedicated buttons for Dive Parry and Drive Impact.

You can find the default button layout for the PlayStation and Xbox controllers when playing with Modern controls below:

DualShock 4 and DualSense:

  • Triangle Button: Light Attack
  • X Button: Medium Attack
  • Circle Button: Heavy Attack
  • Triangle Button: Special Move
  • R1 Button: Dive Parry
  • L1 Button: Drive Impact
  • R2 Button: Assist
  • L2 Button: Light Attack and Medium Attack

Xbox:

  • X Button: Light Attack
  • A Button: Medium Attack
  • B Button: Heavy Attack
  • Y Button: Special Move
  • RB Button: Dive Parry
  • LB Button: Drive Impact
  • RT Button: Assist
  • LT Button: Light and Medium

Dynamic Street Fighter 6 controls

The Dynamic control type is designed for causal players who want to play a quick match with each other or breeze through the single-player fights. This option can’t be used online or in some of the Fighting Ground modes.

For this setup, kicks and punches have also been combined. The game will also automatically choose what it thinks will be the best attack based on the distance between your character and the opponent.

There are also dedicated buttons for Dive Impact, Dive Parry, Super Art, Normal Throw and Override Arts.

You can find the default PlayStation and Xbox button layouts for the Street Fighter VI Dynamic control type below:

DualShock 4 and DualSense:

  • Square Button: Light Attack
  • X Button: Medium Attack
  • Circle Button: Heavy Attack
  • Triangle Button: Dive Impact
  • R1 Button: Dive Parry
  • R2 Button: Super Art
  • L1 Button: Normal Throw
  • L2 Button: Override Arts
  • Touch Pad Button: Accessibility Sounds

Xbox:

  • X Button: Light Attack
  • A Button: Medium Attack
  • B Button: Heavy Attack
  • Y Button: Dive Impact
  • RB Button: Dive Parry
  • RT Button: Super Art
  • LB Button: Normal Throw
  • LT Button: Override Arts
  • View Button: Accessibility Sounds

Classic Street Fighter 6 controls

The Classic type is made for those who are familiar with the control scheme from Street Fighter V and other older releases in the long-running series.

As a result, you will get dedicated buttons for kicks and punches. You also need to manually input a sting of commands in order to perform special attacks and actions. These include Dive Impact, Dive Parry, Override Arts and Special Arts.

You can find the classic button layout for the PlayStation and Xbox controllers below:

DualShock 4 and DualSense:

  • Square Button: Light Punch

  • R2 Button: Heavy Kick
  • L2 Button: Medium Punch and Medium Kick
  • L1 Button: Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick

Xbox:

  • X Button: Light Punch
  • Y Button: Medium Punch
  • RB Button: Heavy Punch
  • A Button: Light Kick
  • B Button: Medium Kick
  • RT Button: Heavy Kick
  • LT Button: Medium Punch and Medium Kick
  • LB Button: Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick

Recap

The Modern control type in Street Fighter 6, which is the default option, is made for gamers who have a hard time memorizing and/or performing button combinations. If you fall into this category, then we suggest that you try out this simplified option first as you don’t have to worry about inputting long lines of commands.

The Dynamic control type is designed for complete newcomers. If you simply want to button mash with friends or in the single player modes, then this is a good option. Keep in mind that you can’t use the Dynamic scheme when fighting against others online or in some of the modes in Fighting Ground.

If you are already familiar with the button combinations in the series, then you can switch back to the Classic control type. This option uses dedicated kick and punch buttons; moreover, you need to input a string of commands in order to perform special attacks and actions.

To see how you can potentially fix this corruption issue, you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

Why your save file gets corrupted

Your save file may end up getting corrupted due to the following scenario:

  • You turn off your PS5 or PS5 Digital Edition during the middle of a save.
  • Your console lost power in the middle of saving.
  • The game crashed when it was saving.

Due to the bugginess of Jedi Survivor, your save was most likely corrupted when the game crashed.

Potential fixes

  • Move the cursor over to the Jedi Survivor game icon on the home screen menu of your PS5.
  • Press the Options button on the controller and then select Upload/Download Saved Data.
  • From the Upload/Download Saved Data menu, select Download.

How to fix the Star Wars Jedi Survivor Devastated Settlement bug

by

When you are going through the Research Tanalorr mission in the Devastated Settlement area while playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, you will run into a puzzle where you need use a turret to remove the Koboh Matter in order to open up the air geysers. You can then use the updrafts created by these geysers when riding a Relter in order to boost higher up in the air.

If the second or third geyser doesn’t seem to be activating in this puzzle, then you can take a look at this troubleshooting guide from Seeking Tech to see how you can fix this glitch.

Before we begin, you can find a video of the glitch below (via the István Bíró YouTube channel):

How to fix

According to a post from a representative of the development team at Respawn Entertainment on the official EA Answers HQ website, a patch to fix the updraft bug is in the works and should be released soon.

So, if you are soft locked of progressing further into the game due to this issue, then you should make sure that you have the latest patch downloaded before you start up Star Wars Jedi Survivor on your PC, PS5, PS5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series S or Xbox Series X.

Workarounds

If you don’t feel like waiting for a patch, then there are several workarounds that you can attempt in order to bypass the rest of the puzzle.

If only the third geyser isn’t activated, then you can still use the boost from the second geyser to get up to the Grand Courtyard if you approach it from the right angle. You can find a video of this workaround below (via the WorldJumpin Twitter page):

If the second geyser in the puzzle isn’t activated, then you need to dive bomb into first geyser and then try to double jump your way to the Grand Courtyard at the right angle. You can find the full instructions posted by 4m254wyzrovf from the official EA Answers HQ website below:

Hi Everyone,

I came across this topic because I also had this issue. I’m playing on Xbox Series X.

I had the issue with the 2nd geyser not working. I wasn’t able to do the work around to get to the higher platform but the video that was posted gave me an idea. I circled around the first geyser 2 or 3 times and then dive bombed into it at the highest I could get it. I then flew to the side where the 3rd puzzle is and double jumped up to the ledge. I got SUPER lucky! I think the key is not pull up until right when the creature stops the speed boost. When I solved the 3rd puzzle the geyser worked and I was able to make it up to the platform with the save.

Unfortunately, I was playing on Xbox and was too excited to remember to save the footage. Hopefully, this helps someone. It CAN be done. Took me about 30 minutes.

How to fix the Koboh elevator glitch in Star Wars Jedi Survivor

by

When playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, you may end up falling through an elevator. If you try to take the same lift again, you will notice that the top is completely sealed, making it impossible to progress through this area and continue on with the campaign.

To see how you can fix this elevator glitch in this action-adventure title, you can check out this troubleshooting guide from Seeking Tech.

This soft-locking bug occurs in the Align Arrays at Koboh Control Center mission at the Alignment Control Center on Koboh. As we previously stated, your character may fall through the floor when you are riding a lift upwards.

When you respawn and take the same elevator again, you will find the top closed. Once the elevator reaches that point, your character will clip through the floor and fall down again. Even if you managed to clip your way through the seal, you may find that none of the objects in the new room can be interacted with.

You can find a video clip of this soft lock below (via the kuku kachew YouTube channel):

How to fix

According to a member of the development team, the elevator glitch should be fixed with the next patch update. You can find an explanation as to how the glitch occurred below (via the EA Answers HQ website):

Hello all, a fix has been submitted to stop the player from falling through again – should be in the next patch. I’m really sorry about this, it is a complicated setup with several dynamics attached to each other and there were several bugs involving it that were fixed that were also causing issues. It looks like this is caused by a single flag on the hatch doors for the central elevator that was missed. Next patch should have a fix to stop the player from being able to fall through the elevator so it doesn’t happen again.

And for those of you that did fall through and are stuck, the hatch doors at the top of the elevator should be open to allow you to take the elevator into the control center, and interact with the console to trigger the cinematic to progress the game.

Again really sorry about this – thank you

Once the new patch has gone live, you should make sure you download it on your PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, Xbox Series S or Xbox Series X before you start up Star Wars Jedi Survivor.
