Fatal Frame 2 Remake Update 1.003.004

Koei Tecmo has released the latest game update for Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfuly Remake across consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2) and PC.

This brings a short list of fixes, though ones I expect the player base will appreciate since it resolves a few nagging technical issues.

Console gamers will see this as Fatal Frame 2 Remake update 1.003.004, which officially brings the game to version 1.03.04.

Fatal Frame 2 Remake HDR and Graphical Issues Resolved in New Title Update

PlayStation® 5 / Xbox Series X|S / Steam® : Ver.1.03.04

  • Fixed an issue where, when using HDR, black-and-white effects during cutscenes would not display correctly.
  • Implemented save data recovery for cases where Extensive Protection could not be obtained.
  • Fixed an issue where the Spirit Stone Mayu’s Charm 8 was not obtainable in Nightmare difficulty.
  • Fixed issues to improve game stability.
  • Other minor bug fixes.

Nintendo Switch™ 2 : Ver.1.03.04

Release Version Update for Nintendo Switch™ 2 is scheduled to be released soon.

  • Fixed an issue where the Spirit Stone Mayu’s Charm 8 was not obtainable in Nightmare difficulty.
  • Fixed issues to improve game stability.
  • Other minor bug fixes.

For reference, a patch was also released on March 27 that fixed bugs in the Camera Obscura and more. We’ve included the list of fixes from KOEI Tecmo below:

PlayStation® 5 / Xbox Series X|S / Steam® : Ver.1.03.03

  • Fixed a bug that prevented the Camera Obscura from being reobtained in Chapter Seven.
  • Fixed a bug that caused Mayu to stop moving in Chapter Four.
  • Fixed a bug that made it impossible for Mayu to pass through a side door in Chapter Four.
  • Fixed a bug that made it possible to obtain opens for free in the Point Exchange.
  • Fixed an issue where the Motion Blur (Camera Obscura) settings were also applied to the normal Motion Blur setting.
  • Fixed a bug that caused the settings from Outfits During Movies to not display correctly.
  • Fixed a bug in how Photo Mode camera settings were linked to the Options camera settings, where Photo Mode’s Camera (Vertical) settings were wrongly applied to Option Menu’s Camera (Horizontal) setting, and vice versa.
  • Fixed a bug where performing a Purging Special Shot did not increase the Special Shots Taken count in the Play Record.
  • Fixed a bug where the conditions for unlocking the Extensive Protection were sometimes not calculated correctly.
  • Fixed issues to improve game stability.
  • Made text corrections.
  • Other minor bug fixes.

While not a horror game, the latest Japan-made big-budget game to hit consoles and PC is Capcom’s Pragmata, and we think it’s a frontrunner for Game of the Year! Check out our review before the game’s release on April 17.
