Bandai Namco Studios released Code Vein II update 2002 (version 2.002.000) on September 14, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. This hotfix arrives shortly after the launch of the “Mask of Idris” expansion to address stability issues and a specific progression blocker.
Holly Asturias Quest Fix
The primary focus of this update is a fix for the “Request Treatment from Holly” questline. According to technical reports, a bug prevented players from advancing this specific mission under certain playthrough conditions. This resolution ensures players can now consistently progress through the quest narrative.
Performance and Stability
Following the major Version 2.0 update that accompanied the Mask of Idris DLC on September 9, update 2002 introduces several technical adjustments to improve the experience:
- General gameplay performance improvements to maintain more consistent frame rates.
- Specific crash fixes targeting instability observed since the expansion launch.
- Backend stability updates for the PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S versions.
Context for Returning Players
Code Vein II originally launched on January 29, 2026, as the successor to the 2019 action-RPG. The recent “Mask of Idris” paid expansion and the free 2.0 update added substantial new content to the title.
This 2002 patch is a mandatory download for online play and is intended to stabilize the Code Vein II environment. No numeric balance changes to Blood Codes or Gifts were included in this specific minor build.
