Xbox Series S has become a problem even for such an undemanding game as Replaced

Replaced received good reviews, but Xbox Series S owners will have to face technical problems.

Developers from Sad Cat Studios in a conversation with IGN warned: freezes are possible on this platform due to problems with memory management. The error manifests itself at a key moment – when switching between the fourth and fifth chapters.

The risk is higher for those who complete the game in one go. If the application has not been restarted since the beginning of the walkthrough, a memory failure may lead to the loss of all progress. There is a temporary solution: the developers advise manually closing and restarting the game during the fourth chapter, to clear the RAM.

The studio plans to release a full patch later this week. Certification of the update by the Xbox team started on April 15, 2026. The patch will also add the final cutscenes, which, apparently, the Series S version did not have time to complete by the release.

Therefore, players on this console are advised to postpone the final passage for a few days until the fix is released.
