Dragon’s Dogma 2’s latest update finally delivers CPU performance gains
Capcom’s finally addressing Dragon’s Dogma 2’s performance issues on PC and consoles
Capcom have released a new title update for Dragon’s Dogma 2, and it has taken steps to address the game’s performance issues on PC and consoles. Now, the Dragon’s Dogma 2’s CPU overhead should be greatly reduced in areas with a lot of NPCs. This means that towns and similar areas should be less CPU-limited and less prone to framerate dips.
Capcom has promised “further framerate improvements” with future game updates. Today’s update also brings many new fixes to the game, and makes adjustments to the game’s storage system. For example, 999 of specific items can now be placed into storage, rather than 99. Full PC patch notes for today’s update are included below.
We hope to thoroughly test this new Dragon’s Dogma 2 update later today. This will allow us to see Dragon’s Dogma 2’s CPU performance gains for ourselves, and judge whether or not further improvements are required.
With today’s update, Dragon’s Dogma 2 should now run a lot smoother on both PC and consoles. This is great news for all fans of the game, especially those who wanted to play it at higher framerates on PC.
