Yet another update has arrived for Dragon's Dogma 2, bringing more positive adjustments to the open world RPG. However, there's still no sign of further improvements to the game's technical performance on PS5, which is already rubbing some players the wrong way.
To be fair, patch 1.150 does include a nice boost to storage space, and a few annoying issues appear to have been addressed. The update's available to download now on Sony's system, weighing in at 516MB.
So, the wait for a better frame rate continues. Weeks back, Capcom did say that it was working on improvements to performance — but we've heard nothing on that front since. If we're giving the developer the benefit of the doubt, it's entirely possible that these improvements are simply taking a long time to implement.
After all, the game's performance problems primarily stem from CPU-related optimisation — and that's not an easy fix when you've got intricate, always-on NPC systems in place.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, he's played 'em all — a little too much, some might say.
I wouldn't hold my breath for any kind of significant performance patch.
No offense to Capcom, but I just don't see Capcom engineers spending too much more time figuring out ways to improve CPU performance for Dragon's Dogma 2.
They are probably already working on the next iteration of the RE Engine for the next Resident Evil game.
The better performance will have to wait until PS5 Pro or PS6 xD
Still havent bought the game and wont until they fix the performance issues. Guess i will play it for free when it hits Plus and will spend the €70 that was supposed to go to Capcom on
