Following Power Save Feature Addition, Death Stranding 2 Update 1.010 Released
Yesterday, Kojima Productions released a new Death Stranding 2: On the Beach patch that added the Power Save feature, which was introduced to the PS5 via last month’s system update.
It seems something got broken with that patch, as Death Stranding 2 update 1.010 (complete version 1.010.000), and this should be another small download.
Don’t expect much from this patch, as the turnaround time makes it more of a hotfix than an actual content update.
Death Stranding 2 Gets Second Patch in Two Days as Version 1.010
Kojima Productions nor the PlayStation support studio that helped in developing Death Stranding 2 have shared any details on today’s update yet.
If we had to hazard a guess, this patch should fix performance issues that some users have reported after installing yesterday’s patch that made the game crash.
While we got a patch a few months ago that resolved the stuttering issues, there are still a handful of problems that the devs have yet to address, which include:
- PCC items are still missing player IDs
- PS5 overheating on map (for some)
- Users have reported that the fan on the base PS5 is louder after installing the patch.
- Sound issue wherein it gets super loud during combat (quick fix is to pause/unpause to normalize audio levels)
The Power Save feature patch also came with a Chinese dub, so that’s an extra that we weren’t expecting. When it comes to PS5 system updates, a new one was released today, and it’s more than your usual stability patch.
If the developers release a proper changelog, we’ll update the article to reflect it. For those who notice a bug that got resolved, leave a comment below and we’ll check it out too.
