Game Freak, the studio behind the beloved Pokémon series, has pledged to deliver "continuous updates" to address technical issues and other player-cited problems in its new action RPG, Beast of Reincarnation. The game has faced a rocky launch, drawing criticism for its performance and design elements.
In a statement released on X, Game Freak expressed gratitude to players for engaging with Beast of Reincarnation and stated that player feedback is being taken to heart. The studio plans a series of updates aimed at refining the player experience. The immediate next patch, expected within the coming week, will include adjustments to the game's camera system, improvements to narrative pacing that will be further refined in subsequent updates, general bug fixes, a change to make Performance mode the default setting, and an increase in on-screen text size.
The small text size has been a particular point of contention for players, making it difficult to read dialogue and UI elements, especially when playing at a distance from the screen.
Beast of Reincarnation has garnered a mixed reception from both critics and players. While some praise its action and RPG systems, others find its design to be unrefined and derivative. On Steam, the game currently holds approximately 1,700 "mixed" player reviews, with some comparing it unfavorably to other titles in the market.
Players experiencing issues or bugs are encouraged to utilize the feedback form available on the publisher Fictions' support site to report their findings.
