Deze update is bovendien meer dan een paar slingers op het splashscreen of een joke achievement voor wie de game na al die tijd nog opstart. Het voegt onder andere ondersteuning voor Steam Deck, nieuwe modes en cheats, een hogere moeilijkheidsgraad en zelfs nieuwe voice lines toe. Bovendien worden een hele hoop bugs die nog in de game zaten alsnog aangepakt. Voor een compleet overzicht kun je de patch notes onder aan dit bericht raadplegen, maar eerst wil Vince Desi, oprichter van ontwikkelaar Running With Scissors nog iets zeggen:
''RWS is al meer dan 25 jaar een ware indie en het is moeilijk te geloven dat POSTAL 2 vandaag twintig wordt. De POSTAL 2 Free Anniversary Update van vandaag drukt onze toewijding en inzet voor de geweldige POSTAL community uit. De recente release van POSTAL 4 op PlayStation 5/4 benadrukt onze eindeloze ondersteuning voor onze fans en de Postal Dude.
