Since launching earlier this month, WRC Generations has been plagued with problems on Xbox.
First, early access didn't work in the Fully Loaded Edition. After that, players have encountered numerous wheel issues with WRC Generations on Xbox.
After working with Microsoft to find a solution, the latest WRC Generations Xbox update claims to fix these force feedback problems.
WRC Xbox update fixes force feedback issues
As noted in the patch notes, the latest WRC Xbox November update fixes force feedback issues for Thrustmaster TX, TMX, TS-XW and Logitech G920 wheels.
Additionally, compatible Fanatec wheels are now recognised. Previously, connecting a Fanatec wheel caused the Xbox game to crash and boot back to the console dashboard.
KT Racing notes that players may still find issues with other Thrustmaster peripherals. An update is already in development to solve this.
There still are force feedback issues with Logitech steering wheels, but KT Racing says a future Logitech G HUB update should resolve this. It’s taken nearly a month, but WRC Generations is now finally playable with a wheel on Xbox.
KT Racing is also working to fix other reported issues including the throttle only being effective when pressed at least 95 per cent.
An update will also be out for PlayStation consoles next week addressing the same issues as other platforms.
More details can be found in the patch notes and known issues list below.
