Nixxes has just released Title Update 1.2 for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach and shared its full patch notes. So, let’s see what this new patch brings to the table.
Nixxes has made optimizations to reduce the amount of data being transmitted between the GPU and CPU over the PCIe bus interface. This results in performance improvements across most hardware configurations, with most gains seen on systems that have limited PCIe bandwidth.
Moreover, Patch 1.2 improves overall performance on the Steam Deck. It also comes with various crash fixes, stability improvements, and performance optimizations. Additionally, it brings various bug fixes and improvements related to graphics. It also comes with various input and user interface-related improvements and bug fixes.
Nixxes has also stated that it has fixed the frame rate drops that can occur when using a sniper rifle scope. However, this fix is not part of this current part. Instead, the devs will add it in an upcoming patch that will come out soon. In the meantime, as a workaround, you can try lowering the Level of Detail and/or Texture Quality setting to improve your experience.
Like always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below, you can also find its full patch notes.
