A couple of days ago, Capcom released the first post-launch update for Dragon’s Dogma 2. And, alongside its image improvements to DLSS Super Resolution, this patch also improved overall performance on PC.
For our tests, we used an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 32GB of DDR5 at 6000Mhz, and NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4090. I also used Windows 10 64-bit, and the GeForce 551.86 driver. Moreover, I’ve disabled the second CCD on our 7950X3D.
In Vernworth, perhaps the biggest city of the game, DD2 has way fewer stutters than before. Seriously, just take a look at the following video.
Now I’m not saying that the game is stutter-free. However, it no longer has those major constant stutters in Vernworth. Smaller cities run even better than this. And, as you may have guessed, outside of towns the game becomes GPU-bound and does not suffer from any CPU stutters.
In the video, I also showcased the DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod. By using it, we managed to get over 100fps at 1440p/Max Settings/Ray Tracing on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. In case you’re wondering, I’m using the Quality Ray Tracing Mod which comes with a pretty big performance hit. I’m also forcing DLAA via the NVIDIA Inspector Tool (so that’s the performance with DLAA and not with DLSS Quality Mode).
It’s also worth noting that we aren’t the only ones that witness this improved performance. A lot of users on Steam, Reddit, NeoGAF and Resetera have shared similar results. So no, that’s not a placebo effect. The game runs better than its launch version. At least on PC. Oh, and you won’t longer have to use this trick to get a smooth gaming experience.
However, the fact that DD2 now runs better on the PC does not mean that it has lower CPU requirements. Oh no. The game will still need a beefy CPU in order to hit high framerates. Still, you can now get a pretty smooth experience at around 90% of your playthrough.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 came out last week and modders have immediately improved a lot of things. For instance, you can get a mod that improves its mouse camera movement. Another mod adds a cool lock-on combat mechanic. Then we have the Save Manager Mod which is a must-have mod. This mod allows you to start a new game, create multiple characters, and have an unlimited number of save files for each character. Let’s also not forget this mod that improves the quality of Ray Tracing, and reduces its smearing side effects. Finally, you can download the DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod, as well as its first 4K Texture Packs.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

I got this game as a Bday Gift and I hate it…
There is this place in the first city in the royal palace where fps legit drops to 15 fps…
low settings on a ryzen 5600 and rtx3060 with DLSS ON wtf
is that after the patch?
If only it ran like this last week.
yeah okay, i still will be wait till denuvo removed.
What I find ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING is that modders have had to fix (improve) the save game system in an allegedly “release-ready” game. What a damn joke! I mean sure, it wasn’t exactly developed for PC gamers as a priority, but still for a modern game with a high-end price tag on top.
Do people not realize this sh*t looks like a PS3 game or what ?
brother how LAZY and GREEDY you have to be to convert assets from a 2012 game that uses MT Framework ( an advanced engine ) to an outdated engine like RE engine that can’t handle rendering open world area’s designed for hallways and VR games ,the result is a disaster because RE Engine can’t handle the complexity and depth of MT Framework engine so they had to rely on photogrammetry tech to hide the UGLINESS of the engine
Why would you put an apostrophe in “area’s”?
I’ve been playing the first game instead, and thanks to the game being old it runs pretty well even on potato hardware. It’s not without its flaws, but I’ve been having fun with it so far. I definitely recommend some graphics mods though as even by 2012 standards the graphics are sub-par. Just be advised that the ENB mod is very resource intensive and will also increase load times significantly, so you might want to use a reshade preset instead.
DD Dark Arisen is like $5 on GOG or Steam during discounts, and it runs like a train.
It’s the typical 2010s DX9 performance where everything looks just good enough to be enjoyable and you can easily get 100fps+ with modern hardware.
The game itself is “decent”, it’s just that it’s all a bit hit or miss. Gran Soren looks monotonous, depressing and NPC lacks life. Armor and mobs are monotonous.
But then the dungeons and the catacombs look great, Everfall looks great. Witchwood is amazing too, but then they seem to have cut it short because there are almost no quests there.
Running with the fatigue systems sucks, but you get lots of money in DD Dark Arisen which allows you to buy lots of shrooms and spam them (you can hotkey shroom spamming), and you get the Eternal Ferrystone. (there are run speed mods too afaik)
Dragon’s Dogma got an average Metacritic of 7/10 game, which I agree with completely.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is far worse imo. The story is terrible, the mobs are copy/pasted, performance blows. It is a 4/10 game.
> Running with the fatigue systems sucks
Man, after dealing with Link’s awful endurance in both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, I have no issues with Arisen’s stamina lol
Oh yeah, and the Dragon’s Dogma fandom wiki is great. It is ridiculously detailed, anything you need to know is in the online wiki.
If you don’t want to do any side quests and just do the main quest line for example. Info on Everfall bosses. Where Madeleine hangs out this time. Or beginner stuff like figuring out how a ferrystone and portcrystals work.
there is a great mod collection on nexus i recommend it enhances gameplay and other stuff
MSI Afterburner can sometimes act weird, especially with GeForce
NowExperience 😛geforce now have 4090? i know 4080 max
My bad, I meant GeForce Experience (not GeForce Now), the software app.
Intel Presentmon > MSI afterburner.

Too little too late.
Capcom, cc, 33, is just way past it’s prime and yeah I just don’t think 7-8 are RE games besides branding, they’re generic horror-lite games imo The best part about RE was the characters and their shared experiences with Raccoon City/Mansion then later you had a couple games with terrasave and terragrigia as a common pillar in the revelations series now abandoned. The remake of 2 was the best one by far and 3 really needed to be a dlc for 2 or just combine the two games OR do the whole og 3 and not cut out a ton of it. 4 was just meh to me as a remake, drag queen ladyboy ada wong voice. Revelations 1 needs a proper remake and code veronica, cv, 322 also but we’ll likely get 5 then 6, no need for as much investment as a whole new game like 7-8, revelations etc Didn’t care about ethan much or the rest in 7-8. 7 has a nice texas chainsaw house of horrors thing but that’s it.
I’d cut back using drugs, if i were you. It’s just not good for you.
Then you wouldn’t of posting a pagesheet of generic info about RE on a DD threat.
You know?
this was about capcom in general d*sh, go do your drugs elsewhere.
Too many dindus and women in armor in European medieval game
Shh, it’s a fantasy
I can believe in Dragons but ill never believe in dindu wearing european armor
Are you pissing on Russia?
Yep!
Every ‘poc’ character included in these settings like these now days is not just some passing novelty or inclusive thing it’s 100% purposely done out of spite revenge as to say Europeans have no native lands of their own.
It may come as a total surprise to you due to your utter lack of critical thinking skills, but perhaps the set/setting of this fantasy game is not built on locations and stories that are intended to serve as a strict recreation of European historical heritage.
Go f*k yourself, the setting blatantly all built on European medieval mythology and folklore and half the f*king cast as black voice actors and fat women everywhere. Antiwhite racist faggots making these games should burn in hell.
100%, what you said is exactly my opinion about this
By the time I get around to playing this, after all the patches, the game should be running perfectly.
