Recent developments have sparked intense speculation about the imminent release of Capcom’s much-anticipated sequel, “Dragon’s Dogma 2“. The game, a continuation of the action role-playing series that began in 2012, has been rated in Saudi Arabia, a clear indicator that its launch may be just around the corner. This move usually signifies a title’s final stages of development, hinting at an upcoming global release.
A Closer Look at the Sequel
“Dragon’s Dogma 2” embarks on a gripping narrative set in an underground jail, echoing with the Dragon’s voice amidst a haze of forgotten memories. The story revolves around the destined Dragon slayer and claimant to the throne. The game’s unique vocations allow players diverse combat approaches, set against a backdrop of varied terrains and formidable foes. This sequel, inheriting the legacy of its predecessor, promises a world rich in immersive physics, advanced AI, and cutting-edge graphics.
Anticipation Builds for a Release Date
Capcom’s reticence regarding an official release date has only fueled anticipation. However, recent hands-on demos and investor communications suggest significant progress. Capcom hinted at a major release before April 2024, initially described as “undisclosed” in their English investor Q&A.

This strategic ambiguity, coupled with the game’s recent rating, suggests an announcement could be imminent, possibly at The Game Awards in December 2023.

The original “Dragon’s Dogma” was a groundbreaking action role-playing game that garnered a dedicated following for its innovative gameplay and narrative depth. Its upgraded version, “Dragonโs Dogma: Dark Arisen”, further cemented its status in the gaming world. Set in the fantasy realm of Gransys, it chronicles the Arisen’s journey to defeat the dragon Grigori and unravel world-altering mysteries. The sequel promises to expand on this rich lore and gameplay dynamics.
