Dragon’s Dogma 2
Dragon's Dogma 2 is an open-world action role-playing game developed and published by Capcom, released in March 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC. A sequel to the 2012 cult hit Dragon's Dogma, the game casts players as the Arisen, a hero whose heart is stolen by a dragon, and features the series' signature Pawn system, allowing players to recruit AI-controlled companions that can be shared online. Set in a fantasy world of parallel kingdoms (Vermund and Battahl), Dragon's Dogma 2 emphasizes emergent combat, climbing large monsters, and reactive quest design, though it also garnered criticism for performance issues and microtransaction options that bypassed in-game progression. An expansion, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, was announced in June 2026 for a planned October 2026 release, bringing new content and quality-of-life improvements. The series' blend of action, exploration, and asynchronous multiplayer has earned it a dedicated following.
