Punch Club 2: Fast Forward – Ver. ???
- Release date: TBA
- Patch notes:
QoL Improvements
- Added Clippy softlock escape feature
- Additional softlock escape if the player empties both their food and money reserves. Clippy will now appear and save them.
- Neurotraining price is now 25% lower
- So the “Police-Neurotraining Path” is more accessible.
- More GPP increase for wins, more GPP decrease for losses
- Made the “steps” in Pro-league bigger. You get more GPP for winning and lose more GPP for losing.
- Mick’s Old House & Police Work global progression is now 25% faster
- The global progression speed in Police and Mick’s Old House is faster. (This should feel much less grindy).
Bug Fixes and Graphical Additions
- Fixed unlocking achievements for demo saves
- If you continue playing a Demo save you will get all the achievements that you achieved in the Demo.
- Fixed player sometimes getting stuck after training ends
- Training in Mick’s Gym will no longer cause the game to get stuck.
- ‘Pizza for Barry’ quest now removes pizza from inventory after giving it to Barry
- Fixed an issue that could cause a softlock after beating Aesop but still sitting in 2nd position in the league
- Fixed Apu & Adriana event start bugging in a few cases
- Fixed unlocking the Dream Lab if the police track is followed exclusively
- If the player ignored Mick’s quests, they wouldn’t unlock the Dream Lab scene.
- Fixed edge cases where locations for side quests would not unlock
- Fixed an issue that could make it impossible to join the pro league
- Added dialogue if the player beats Jai
- If you manage to beat Jai, there is now dialogue to reflect that you won. (Initially, he was conceived to be invincible, but some of you have somehow managed to defeat him…….)
- Added sparring guys in Silver’s Ring
- Just a visual in Silver’s Ring scene.
- New animations on various characters
- Minor thing, but the animations are cool :-)
- Additional notes: none.

Punch Club 2: Fast Forward – Ver. 1.002
- Release date: TBA
- Patch notes:
- During the pizza party in the sewers you can talk to Bill and the game won’t break! Crazy, right :D Come check it out!
- Remember when you skipped the fight with Ruth in Silver’s League and stuck? Well, no more! You can finally move further to Pro League, champ!
- We removed tooltips for characters who don’t have descriptions so you can focus on only the funny content and be entertained.
- Finally, you can finish the lost shell quest and no shells will be stuck in your… inventory.
- Now you can enjoy the lost shell scene in its full glory.
- Speaking about glory, Rusty Robot got some dope animations and you may want to lose this fight to enjoy them a little bit more (and now the animation is fixed).
- No more calls during tutorials. Now I remember why we decided to mute calls IRL.
- Fixed some Hanna-North Dakota (or how did this TV series call) dilemma. Now you can have 2 jobs both as a Detective and as Sensei.
- Now Lil Bobo won’t disappear into nothingness when you talk to him. It was kinda rude from his side and we made a deal that he will behave as planned.
- Nothing should stop you from becoming the best police officer in the whole City. We fixed some issues during duty, distracting calls during patrols, and the double start of some events with the yakuza. It should get better now.
- Fixed some translation typos, thanks to all of you who pinpoint them and let us know :)
- Polished some visual software here and there.
- Additional notes: none.
