Dragon's Dogma fans tuned in to the Capcom Showcase hoping for something, anything on the future of the franchise — but we didn't get anything. At least, not yet. Capcom actually announced a '10 Years of Dragon's Dogma' digital event, which will air later this week, on Thursday 16th June. It begins at 3PM PT / 6PM ET / 11PM BST / 12AM CET (17th).
No further details have been given, although creator Hideaki Itsuno describes it as "a video celebrating 10 years of Dragon’s Dogma, talking about how and what Dragon’s Dogma came to be". Hmmmm.
Okay, so could Capcom be planning some kind of reveal or tease for a new Dragon's Dogma game? Dragon's Dogma 2 is heavily rumoured to be in development — how many times have we had to write that now? — and the fact that Capcom announced this video during its showcase suggests that it'll have something to say. Or so we'd like to think.
What do you reckon? Is it finally time, or is Capcom just going to thank us all for playing Dragon's Dogma and leave it at that? Pray with us in the comments section below.

Same time as the FF7 thing 😒
capgod why u do this?
@Voltan Oh my god you're right.
If it happens which it likely will, it'll probably just be a quick little name drop trailer without any substance. But I'm here for it
@Judal27 At this point, I'd take Itsuno writing the name on a piece of paper.
I don't understand why they wouldn't unveil it on the showcase if they had something to show.
I think that they are recognising DD is a thing, but a new game may not be ready to show.
A whole show based on one game? Shows how amazing the game is. Sequel is clearly coming, it was on the leaks and everything on that leak has happened so far.
Well, it's not a sequel. But it's also not... not a sequel.
I swear to God Capcom, if you get my hopes up just to crush them again I will come for you.
They gotta announce a sequel for this event. Either that or it will probably be merchandise like a Dragon Dogma t shirt or something. 😑
As someone that hasn’t played Dragons Dogma before, but has heard people sing it’s praises over the years, I’d love a PS5 remake in the RE Engine…
Ok interesting.cool.word up son
It doesn’t seem Capcom is going to reveal the next game during the event, but we might have the remake of the original one.
The publisher loves to create some new games based on the previous IP. We’ve already seen Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, so maybe the time of Dragon’s Dogma is coming.
What about the original game, it was a very strange project which didn’t look like a typical western rpg, but at the same time it wasn't a jrpg.
@Shstrick @gotDvamp A remake of a remake of a PS3 original again? Maybe they should get Naughty Dog to do the conversion as they have track record in this!
Time for Dragon's Dogma 2. It was a bit of a cult hit and has been ever since, even if the pawns 'conversation' pieces could get repetitive.
It was unusual in being a Japanese take of a Western RPG or was it a Western take of a Japanese RPG? Either way, it worked brilliantly.
@sanderson72
I don’t argue with that argument — Dragon’s Dogma was a brilliant game. But Capcom makes sequels with a narrowed audience rarely enough, so I doubt part two will be shown.
I've bought this game twice (well once through PS+) and still never played it. Third times the charm they say.
Man I will ever get the love people have for Dragons Dogma. I’ve tried to play it twice now and it’s just not a good game. It has a horrible story,horrible characters,a truly bland and uninspired open world that’s a chore to traverse and doesn’t even reward you for doing it, a asinine fast travel system and graphics that were barely passable at the time. The combat and companion system were the only good things about the game but it doesn’t make up for the myriad other problems I named problems that other open world games would get crucified for it’s just mind blowing the hype some people have for a sequel.
@gotDvamp yeah the game def wasn’t brilliant like at all
Love this game ,please a ps5 upgrade ,and can we have the original song back
I'm going to be realistic and say the most we'll get is a season 2 of the anime and maaaaaybe a remaster
I REALLY want the sequel but Capcom are pretty ***** at reading the room.
This is where they announce a remake not a sequel. Rehashing old games makes more money than making anything original so why would they.
Same time as the FFVII event
@masofdas @ShogunRok @Voltan I care alot more for FF7/FF franchise in general, so I'll be watching the FF7 stream live instead of the Dragon's Dogma stream.
They'll upload a recording later so it's no big deal.
I dont think they will announce anything,but happy to be proven wrong,,
