The Photo Mode update has arrived for Hi-Fi Rush, and here are the changes and bug fixes that arrived in this patch. Don’t let the title mislead you; the update brings other changes alongside the photo mode feature. The changes are mostly bug fixes, and a few small features might exist. But the focus is the photo mode feature arriving today. It was anticipated for a while, and the developers have been working on it. Thankfully, the feature became available, and you can take amazing shots with it. Here are the patch notes for the Hi-Fi Rush photo mode update.

As you see above, the changes are mostly bug fixes and optimizations. This is lastly normal because the game was released back in this January. It’s a fresh release, and there’s nothing better than seeing a stable experience on new titles. We expect more bug fixes with further updates, and the developers will probably focus on new features. Anyway, it’s great to have the photo mode feature that you might be already tried. It will help you to take better screenshots. Hi-Fi Rush is available on PC and Xbox Series.
