Deadly Premonition 2 quietly received another update last week. Version 1.0.4 is live for all players.
Unfortunately, there’s been no word from the publisher or developer about the update. The team previously said it would continue improving the game’s performance, and the patch may very well be related to that.

Deadly Premonition 2 received its first major patch last month. That update dealt with transgender misrepresentation issues, improved the frame rate, fixed bugs/glitches, and changed the icon.
Another patch for Deadly Premonition 2 went live today, and the game is now at version 1.0.3. Aside from adding an inverted camera option, we’re hearing that there’s another big performance improvement. There’s also one player report of a mini game progression issue having been fixed.

Deadly Premonition 2 PR says there are no plans to improve frame rate
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Based on those that have had early hands-on time with Deadly Premonition 2, a common complaint is that the game suffers from major frame rate issues. It’s particularly noticeable when exploring outdoors – which is where most of the action takes place.
With other titles that have suffered from a low frame rate, we’ve sometimes seen updates released to improve things. Unfortunately, Deadly Premonition 2 apparently won’t be receiving anything like that. Jim Sterling spoke with the PR behind the game, and was told that there are no plans to improve the frame rate.
The original Deadly Premonition also had its fair share of complaints surrounding performance. Potential players will ultimately need to decide if they can handle a low and fluctuating frame rate. If plans do change and we hear something regarding a patch, we’ll definitely let you know.
