Continue reading the article to know about Need for Speed Unbound and whether is there a fix for the HDR not working issue.
Having HDR support in a game like Need for Speed Unbound looks drop-dead gorgeous. Sadly the PC port is broken in various aspects that will require a lot of patches to fix. We have mentioned a few of the issues of the game and their fixes that you can check out on our website. As for HDR not working in NFS Unbound, there is a temporary fix suggested by the user @whataboutmeboss to mitigate the issue.
Fix for HDR issue in Need for Speed Unbound.
First, turn off Freesync/Gsync, and enable HDR in both game and Windows. After that, enable Lighting Effects. It will make the game look less washed out and turn off Gamma Correction as well. The third step is to press Alt+tab and go to Youtube and watch an HDR-enabled video. This will override the HDR settings of the game running in the background.
If that doesn’t work, press Win+Alt+B, this will turn off HDR in windows. Once again press Win+Alt+B to enable it and Alt+Tab back into the game. There’s a chance that it might or might not work. However, you can try these methods until EA releases a fix for this issue. The final thing you can do is adjust your monitor color correction, brightness, and in-game gamma correction to fix things.
If that didn’t help, then we’ll advise you to wait for an update or patch from EA that’ll patch the HDR issue. Look for the latest updates and install them whenever you can.
