Visual effects can help bring a game world to life, but Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s chromatic aberration has proven to be a dealbreaker for some players who are looking for a way to turn off the effect.
As is the case with other titles, Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s chromatic aberration effect adds a colored outline around the edges of various objects.
Assassin's Creed Mirage's Chromatic Aberration
In the best of cases, the effect would be used to add a bit of extra nuance to various scenes. But several players have reported it being too aggressive in Ubisfot’s latest release.
Several threads have popped up across Reddit, with players complaining about Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s implementation of chromatic aberration effect and the decision to not allow players to turn it off.
One user describes it as “disgusting to the point of hurting my eyes,” while another points out that it is “extremely distracting.”
Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a way to turn off Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s chromatic aberration effect. The launch version of the game doesn’t feature a dedicated option for it, from what we can tell.
The descriptions of existing graphics options do not reference it either, leaving those who would rather play without it lacking an easy solution for their problem.
This means that, at the moment, those affected are waiting for Ubisoft to either patch in an option to toggle the effect or at least reduce its impact on the game’s visuals.
The publisher has yet to address the issue publicly but, if you count among those finding it hard to play Mirage, it might be worth keeping an eye on the company’s social media accounts over the coming days and weeks.
We are aware that Ubisoft’s support team has informed players about an upcoming toggle feature to switch off the effect. This update will be available in the next patch, so solutions are on the way.
Thankfully, the modding community has come to the rescue while we wait for this fix. Kamzik123 has crafted a straightforward mod that lets you disable Chromatic Aberration.
That is what we know so far about whether or not you can turn off chromatic aberration in Assassin’s Creed Mirage. For more on the game, check out our review and whether or not the title features any cheats.
