A new easter egg has been added, and there seem to be more bug fixes, but the specific details on them have not been given. Even so, it appears that a few players are still experiencing some common bugs and glitches, like being unable to pick up a note. One Twitter user has complained of a glitch that is halting their progress.
I keep trying to open up the safe in part two and every time I grab the dial the picture disappears there’s a bad glitch with this section please look into it ASAP,” says Console Gamer.
It is safe to say that there is still some work that needs to be done to improve the game’s condition.

It was released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, and Linux on February 16, 2016. It was later released on Nintendo Switch on February 21, 2018.
