Remedy Entertainment has released update 1.2.11 (version 1.200.011 on PlayStation 5) for Alan Wake 2, introducing AMD FSR 4.1 support for PC users and resolving issues with display settings across all platforms. The update, launched on October 21, 2026, aims to improve visual clarity and technical stability following community feedback regarding performance since patch 1.13.
FSR 4.1 Support for PC
The primary addition for the PC version of Alan Wake 2 is the integration of AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) 4.1. This update provides PC players with updated upscaling technology, allowing for improved image quality and performance on compatible hardware. This modernization ensures that the title continues to leverage current-generation upscaling techniques to manage the game’s high graphical demands.
HDR UI and Display Fixes
A specific fix has been implemented for the HDR (High Dynamic Range) toggle. Previously, some players found that the option to enable HDR would not display correctly even when using a compatible monitor or television. The 1.2.11 patch ensures that the HDR toggle now appears reliably in the settings menu when a compatible display is detected, allowing players to correctly calibrate their visual experience.
General Improvements and Stability
In addition to the headline technical additions, Remedy has included several minor fixes and performance improvements in this build. These changes address various stability issues that have been reported by the player base. Remedy Entertainment noted the update’s arrival across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via the Epic Games Store.
- Version Numbers: 1.2.11 for PC and Xbox; 1.200.011 for PlayStation 5.
- Platform Availability: PC (Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S.
- Visual Fixes: Corrected the visibility of the HDR toggle in the graphics menu.
- Performance: General minor fixes to address reports of bugs appearing since the release of patch 1.13.
The update is now available for download on all platforms. While primarily a technical maintenance patch, the inclusion of FSR 4.1 represents a significant update for PC players seeking the best possible balance between frame rate and image fidelity.
