PS5 Graphics and Texture Quality Issue Since the New Fortnite Season

Summary

Dear Epic Games Support Team,

I would like to report a graphics issue affecting Fortnite on PlayStation 5 since the launch of the new season.

After the season update, many textures and graphical assets appear to have been significantly downgraded. The graphics often look similar to Performance Mode visuals, despite PlayStation 5 players expecting the normal high-quality graphics settings.

The issue is present across all game modes, including Battle Royale, Reload, Creative, LEGO Fortnite, and other Fortnite experiences. Textures frequently appear low-resolution, objects load with reduced detail, and the overall visual quality is noticeably worse than it was before the new season launched.

Platform: PlayStation 5

Issue Details:

Started immediately after the release of the new season.

Low-quality textures and reduced graphical detail.

Visuals resemble Performance Mode graphics.

Occurs in all game modes.

Multiple PS5 players are experiencing the same issue.

The problem persists after restarting the game and console.

I have attached screenshots that clearly demonstrate the issue and provide visual evidence of the texture and graphics degradation.

Could you please investigate whether this is a known issue introduced with the new season update? Any information regarding a fix or planned patch would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and support.

Kind regards
