Capcom has finally announced that Dragon’s Dogma II will be coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam on March 22, 2024. Pre-orders for the follow-up to the 2012 original are up now, complete with pre-order bonuses. Capcom made the announcement during the scheduled showcase event, which included new gameplay reveals with director Hideaki Itsuno and producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi.
On PlayStation Blog, Itsuno stated that Dragon’s Dogma is a game that he dreamed of playing as a boy “who loved TRPG-based games and action games, and I have a special attachment to it. Dragon’s Dogma II incorporates ideas that were not technically feasible at the time we created the first game. I believe this game will let you experience the fantasy world you’ve always dreamed of, a fantasy world action simulator game, and ultimately be the ultimate Dragon’s Dogma.”
Itsuno and Hirabayashi also provided a first look at several monsters during the digital event, such as a towering bronze golem known as Talos, as well as the Dullahan and Drake enemies. Dullahan is a headless specter capable of immobilizing its target before striking, while the dragon-like Drakes are capable of breathing fire and taking flight to mix things up.
The digital event also provided a first look at the returning Warrior and Sorcerer Vocations that will be available to both the Arisen and Pawns. The Warrior specializes in direct combat, and are masters of two-handed weapons, while the Sorcerer is focused on magick disciplines.
Along with the standard version of Dragon’s Dogma II, there’s also the Deluxe Edition, which includes the “New Journey Pack”. This pack includes in-game items such as a custom Camping Kit, a Wakestone, Rift Crystals, and a Dragon’s Dogma Music and Sound collection.
If that’s not enough, the Standard and Deluxe Editions each have their own pre-order bonuses. Pre-orders of the Standard Edition will feature a bonus weapon for each of the four starting vocations, while the Deluxe Edition pre-orders also include the Ring of Assurance in-game accessory.
