Launched in 2012, Dragon’s Dogma was an excellent, tough across the edges RPG with some actually fascinating concepts. Chief amongst these was the Pawn system, which allow you to customise social gathering companions after which share them on-line to be levelled up by different gamers, and vice versa. Oh, and you may climb enemies mid-combat, Shadow of the Colossus-style. Oh, and you may additionally decide individuals up and throw them off cliffs.
A fantastic recreation all spherical, and one vastly overdue for a sequel. The current Netflix anime was proof sufficient that Capcom has plans for the sequence, however as of immediately, the official Dragon’s Dogma web site has obtained a particular tenth Anniversary therapy. It is true: Dragon’s Dogma launched in Might, 2012 (so did Soul Sacrifice, by the best way, and the place’s its anniversary web site?).
What’s much less clear is why Capcom would put a lot effort into celebrating a largely dormant sequence. There was a Dragon’s Dogma MMO that by no means got here west, and an anime that wrapped up in late 2020, however in any other case there’s been nothing.
Probably the most thrilling risk, in fact, is that this therapy factors to an imminent reveal for Dragon’s Dogma 2, the eventual existence of which appears virtually inevitable. Again in 2019, Dragon’s Dogma and Satan Might Cry creator Hideaki Itsuno mentioned {that a} sequel to the previous was on the playing cards, however that he and Capcom opted for Satan Might Cry 5 as an alternative.
Not solely that, however Dragon’s Dogma 2 was included in that notorious Nvidia leaked recreation listing, which since its unique November 2021 look, has been corroborated a number of occasions by precise bulletins.
Or… it may simply be one other season of the anime, which might be good, however the place’s Dragon’s Dogma 2, Capcom? Please. No matter occurs, the Dragon’s Dogma tenth Anniversary web site is right here if you wish to have a look. Might may be very quickly passing, so if Capcom does have an announcement up its sleeve, it will most likely occur this week or early subsequent.
