Frogwares Issues Major 1.1.0 Patch for The Sinking City 2

The studio says the free update fixes more than 150 problems to directly address player complaints about combat balance, performance and replayability.

Overview

  • Frogwares released version 1.1.0 as a free update that the studio describes as containing over 150 fixes and improvements across gameplay, technical systems and localization.
  • Several combat encounters were redesigned to lower enemy pressure with reduced enemy counts and lighter wave compositions in fights players flagged as overly punishing, including “The Wake‑Up Call,” “A Sight for Sore Eyes,” “Time and Tide,” and “Cold Comfort.”
  • The patch adds platform graphical and performance options such as HDR support including HDR10+, AMD FSR 4.1.1 and an NVIDIA DLSS “Legacy” mode for PC, plus PS5 Pro PSSR and refined Quality and Performance modes.
  • Post‑game changes to Ex Oblivione make inventory slots and weapon upgrades persist between runs and introduce a Pure New Game option, while Frogwares reissued the Steam demo with demo‑to‑full save carryover and added two unlockable outfits for protagonist Calvin Rafferty.
  • The update coincides with the game’s first post‑launch discounts and ongoing trials on PlayStation and Xbox, a move that could widen the player base after launch criticism and follows a positive 8.5/10 review from Wccftech.
