Capcom has just wrapped up its latest Dragon's Dogma 2 Showcase, revealing new enemies, a new vocation, and more details about the highly anticipated sequel. "Dragon's Dogma 2" is set to expand the series with a huge scale, introducing formidable adversaries such as Talos, a colossal statue enemy that players can defeat by targeting its weak points, reminiscent of Shadow of the Colossus gameplay mechanics. The game's setting unfolds in a parallel world, involving the struggle between two kingdoms, Vermund and Battahl.

Dragon's Dogma 2's narrative takes players on various quests, including interactions with Elven siblings and the opportunity to explore the Elven settlement called the Sacred Arbor. Here, language barriers can be overcome with the help of Pawns who translate Elvish. New gameplay features showcased include an enhanced character creator and the Trickster Vocation, offering a combat style that relies on illusions and sideline support.

The release date for Dragon's Dogma 2 has been announced for March 22, 2024, and will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S platforms. Preorders have opened, providing several purchasing options. The Standard Edition includes the base game, while the Deluxe Edition adds 1500 Rift Crystals, a music and sound collection, and additional in-game items.
