Dragon's Dogma II 2 Review - A Beastren Warrior Takes A Huge Swing At A Goblin

Dragon’s Dogma 2 Just Got An Update With Improved Performance And 120Hz Options On Consoles

Nice!

It feels like all of today’s news is exclusively Capcom-related, but it’s at least a lot of good news. Case in point – a new update that’s just dropped for Dragon’s Dogma 2 which continues to add much-needed performance improvements and options for console players, along with some handy quality-of-life additions.

The big change here is that players on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S are now able to change the graphics settings in-game to High (presumably what it was before) and Low, with the latter obviously bringing increased performance, and also toggle on/off a 120Hz option which should be a noticeable benefit to those with compatible displays.

Capcom also notes it’s smoothed out some of the CPU overload in “certain situations,” which presumably means some of those sticky city/town areas that have affected performance, so hopefully that’ll help everyone regardless of their platform/settings.

Elsewhere, some storage and inventory mechanics have been made better, and some more general fixes have been implemented. Here’s what’s new:
