11 The Chromatic Aberration toggle is an accessibility option added in Patch 1.04.00 under Settings > Accessibility. It controls whether the chromatic aberration filter is applied to the camera image. Turning it off removes the rainbow edge fringing on high-contrast UI and scene boundaries, which is helpful for players who find the effect distracting or who experience visual fatigue under the default look.
