As promised by Capcom earlier in the month, Dragon's Dogma 2 has a new update on PS5. Patch 1.10, which weighs in at a very manageable 563MB, features adjustments to various aspects of the game, like making dragonsplague easier to spot, and improving pawn behaviour.
Those who caught the initial patch announcement wouldn't have been expecting them anyway, but it's worth mentioning that this update doesn't come with performance boosts. The game's frame rate remains rough in places — although Capcom has said that it's working to address the technical side of things in future updates. The wait continues...

I got the Platinum and going to put it down for a while. A Bitterblack Isle type expansion would bring me back real fast.
I've finished the game twice and I'm just going to mop up remaining trophies for the platinum now on my main account. Looking forward to an expansion some time.
@Ravix I bumped into Tim Roth just strolling around Battahl and his eyes were wildly glowing red. Poor Tim got the plague.
Edit* Just got the platinum. I've done everything and now I'm a bit sad. Fantastic game.
I need that performance patch asap
"Adding the option to zoom in on the faces of the Arisen and Pawns in the status screen, shops, etc."
Seems like an odd adjustment to waste development cycles on...but, okay....
@GamingFan4Lyf it is pretty hard to find right angel and zoom, trying to figure out, whether the pawn has gone mad or not. And missing that moment may result in loosing the whole party. So, nope, that is a nice addition. And this function could be done with ease, because rotating and zooming was already present in game during the character creation.
@Tomato_Goose Oh...okay. So..it does have gameplay implications, then.
Never played Dragon's Dogma, so it just seemed like a weird thing to fuss over from an outsider's perspective.
@ApostateMage aww, he must miss you
haha I think I've left him in Limbo tbh as the endgame was quite plaguey, let's say, and I didn't click new game since finishing, so my last pawn server save is technically just before the end cutscene 🐲👀
I found dragons plague to very noticeable before this patch. My normally friendly pawn wouldn't stop sassing me when she caught it. 😂
I swear YouTubers were letting Dragonsplague get out of hand just to make a "Dragonsplague Wreaked My Game!" Video. You have to flat out ignore the signs for it to become a real issue.
I don’t think usually beg for DLC but I really hope they expand this game. I loved the ending and the payoff from the first game.
Edit: whose pawn is falling off a cliff? I trip and tumble down mountains all day and my pawn is like “I will go find some stairs or a path. Someone grab a potion so we can heal this clumsy idiot.”
I completed it just last night and while I had a lot of fun with its exploration and gameplay the story is just... ass
Where's muh hide helmet option, capcom?
It's not out yet for me which is strange..
