This looks like your x gantry is drooped. Check out this post, I was facing the same issue and this helped me out.

in the thread is a video by 247printing and he got a 500. One issue he say was his x gantry drooping and he pulled it up at the 16:00 mark (physically pulled it up). I did the same, and that helped me.

I don't think the weight of the head will make it droop over time, it's pretty light all things considered. It's just that in the vid, the printer was shipped with the head in the middle, so the delivery jostling made it droop by shaking the toolhead. Of course, time will tell.

What temp did you soak at?

the lifting on the right makes me think the gantry isn't square. I'm inclined to think your x gantry is tilting downward on the right
