Launched in 2012, Dragon’s Dogma was a superb, 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 could possibly climb enemies mid-combat, Shadow of the Colossus-style. Oh, and you could possibly additionally decide folks up and throw them off cliffs.
An important sport all spherical, and one vastly overdue for a sequel. The latest Netflix anime was proof sufficient that Capcom has plans for the sequence, however as of at present, the official Dragon’s Dogma web site has obtained a particular tenth Anniversary remedy. It is true: Dragon’s Dogma launched in Could, 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 principally 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.
Essentially the most thrilling chance, after all, is that this remedy factors to an imminent reveal for Dragon’s Dogma 2, the eventual existence of which appears nearly inevitable. Again in 2019, Dragon’s Dogma and Satan Could Cry creator Hideaki Itsuno stated {that a} sequel to the previous was on the playing cards, however that he and Capcom opted for Satan Could Cry 5 as a substitute.
Not solely that, however Dragon’s Dogma 2 was included in that notorious Nvidia leaked sport record, which since its authentic November 2021 look, has been corroborated a number of instances by precise bulletins.
Or… it might 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. Could could be very quickly passing, so if Capcom does have an announcement up its sleeve, it’s going to most likely occur this week or early subsequent.
