Is it to me or it was always been like that ? I’m using 1080P res. Before update i think his muscles more bigger and level 1 basic sword was a little bit wider.

I’m pretty sure his icons has been changed too. If i remember correctly his avatar doesnt look straight forward.

What I do know is that they updated the character Icons for every character in the game for the anniversary edition. And they updated/buffed OG Jago’s moves. But to my knowledge they only made everything play/look well on 4k screens and set-ups. If that has resulted to Jago looks skinnier… I don’t know, maybe I guess? I can’t see it but maybe a “graphics guru” know more about “upscaling” stuff and the end results of that process.
Iron Galaxy/microsoft has released a full list of all the “changes” to the game for the anniversary edition. My knowledge only comes from the Stream Iron Galaxy did for the update 22 nov.

As far as I know, it’s mostly balance changes they listed.

In terms of non-balance, they mention the game has been moved to DirectX 12 for the newer consoles, does up to 1440p at 60 FPS on Xbox Series S, and up to 2160p at 60 FPS on Xbox Series X (it already did native 2160p at 60 FPS on Xbox One X though). So not a lot of details there.
