Well, Shin&#8217;en has confirmed to us that the &#8216;Pure Update&#8217; \u2013 which is completely free, by the way \u2013 will contain three new tracks based on classics from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/fast_rmx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fast RMX<\/a>. These will be largely faithful recreations of fan favourites from the original 2017 Switch launch title, but with small tweaks to make use of the new &#8216;Hyperjump&#8217; feature along with all new visuals and effects.<\/p>\n<p>Carbium Cup<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Alpine Trust<br \/>&#8211; Sunahara Plains<br \/>&#8211; Zenshoh Habitat<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the new tracks, the Pure Update will also include a new performance mode simply called &#8216;Pure&#8217;, which renders at 1440p dynamic resolution with no upscaling applied. Fan feedback from the game&#8217;s release was that the visuals could often look a little blurry due to the application of DLSS, so hopefully this new option will completely erradicate this.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not all, though. Shin&#8217;en has also shared that the Alpine Trust track will implement a new GPU particle system for the snowflakes effect, and we honestly can&#8217;t wait to see this in action. We&#8217;re also getting two new Jukebox entries, tweaks to make progression slightly easier (specifically a lower price for the third cup), a bug fix to resolve a rare crash when switching rendering modes often, and several smaller fixes and corrections.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s take a closer look at the new tracks:<\/p>\n<p>Images: Shin&#8217;en Multimedia<br \/>\nImages: Shin&#8217;en Multimedia<\/p>\n<p>Fast Fusion is a real showstopper launch title for the Switch 2, earning a well-deserved score of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/reviews\/nintendo-switch-2\/fast-fusion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">9\/10 in our review<\/a>. We said that it&#8217;s &#8220;easily the most accomplished entry in Shin&#8217;en Multimedia&#8217;s series so far&#8221; and is &#8220;an absolute must-buy&#8221; for new Switch 2 owners.<\/p>\n<p>If, however, you thought the overall content was a little slim, then hopefully this first major update will help alleviate this with the addition of three new tracks.<\/p>\n<p>Will you be diving back into Fast Fusion when the new &#8216;Pure Update&#8217; lands this week?
