Elex Xbox Series X image flickering/flashes during the game

ДмитроГубін · Feb 8, 2022

Image flashes in Elex. This happens at random times and becomes more frequent when it rains in the game. This happens in resolution mode and performance mode. I've tried turning variable refresh rate on and off, hard resetting Xbox, reinstalling the game, changing color depth, color space, different monitor, etc. I've found people on Reddit with the same issue on Xbox Series X/S, but no issue on Xbox One X/One.

Oh I see. I just did a search and saw that as well. Yes it seems to be a bug within the game as it is all over the place. Sorry about that

I'll recommend you do a power cycle to clear the system cache

- Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

- Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 2 minutes.

- Plug the console power cable back in. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on and check if it's all good.

If that doesn't help, I'll suggest playing the game at 1080p just to see if that makes a difference. Let me know if it does

I did what you said and even more earlier... I even did a full reset of the console, various combinations of settings, connected the console to another display... What is most interesting on the Xbox One / One X, there are no such problems - this is a problem Xbox series. I found people on Reddit with the same problems in this game. Maybe it's a backwards compatibility bug because it's an Xbox One generation game....

I am sorry that didn't work. Are you using an external hard drive? Does the same issue happen on both TV and monitor?

My suggestion is to make a "Factory Reset".

it will refresh your system and delete any corrupted files that are causing issues.

- Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

- Select System > Settings > System > Console info.

- Select Reset console.

- On the Reset your console screen: Select "Reset and keep my games & apps".

You will have to sign in again.
