Dragon's Dogma 2 is happening, but we're yet to see anything of the project outside of a logo — and even that might be a placeholder. The long-awaited sequel was finally announced during its own special presentation back in June, with excitable director Hideaki Itsuno telling fans that the development team would share more information in time.
Here we are six months later and we're still waiting. There were suggestions that Dragon's Dogma 2 has actually been in development for a while, but it sounds like it's only really hitting its stride behind the scenes. Speaking to Japanese gaming publication Famitsu (as translated by Gematsu), Itsuno says that "things are moving along well", and that if everything goes to plan, the team will have an "update" to share with everyone "as soon as possible".
We're going to assume that 2023 will be the year in which we get our first look at Dragon's Dogma 2 — but we're certainly not sold on the idea that it might release at some point over the next 12 months. Hopefully Capcom gives us a timeline in the new year.

One of the best games ever made.yo playas dragon dogma is amazing.especially playing as a sorcerer/mage.to me dragon dogma have the best magic in any video games i ever play.cant wait for dragon dogma 2.word up son
The original was amazing at the time.
It's one of the few PS3 upgrades on PS4 that I still play.
For a sequel I just need them to do more of the same.
Maybe add a bigger open world and more dungeon variety. And some co-op would be nice. Would love to join a friend's game as a summoned pawn for raids or scaled boss battles.
Oooh! Add raids or scaled boss battles 😌
I’m definitely looking forward to this, but where’s Pragmata? That said though, if Capcom truly does release everything it’s got slated for 2023 and Dragon’s Dogma 2 is among the list, that’s perhaps the most loaded AAA schedule I’ve ever seen from a publisher.
Yes yes yes..Awesome.
Looking forward to this. Really liked the original
Have no idea how there is any hype for this. I tried to play the first one twice once ps3 and then on ps4 and it’s just not a good game imo. The companions by nature of what they are are beyond forgettable,the open world was barren and horrible especially to traverse,the main story or what there was of it was comical and the combat was pretty decent but everything was a damage sponge and hit like a truck and it just got boring after awhile. Nothing needs to be said about the bad voice acting and graphics so I’m just genuinely curious how people like the first after I tried twice and are hyped for the sequel
When they did that presentation several months ago I got the impression they have literally only just started working on it, this game ain't coming out until 2025/26 at the earliest.
As a Diablo hardcore fan, i will take some time away from Diablo 4 to play this when it finally releases. I would love to see the first game get redone for the Series X and PS5. Having both games with modern hardware would be a big win for Capcom, the games themselves and of course us fans. I could care less about JRPG’s but action RPG’s are a thing for me. Bring on the news for DD2.
Still one of the best jrpgs ever made, can't wait for this one.
@dark_knightmare2 I'm in a similar boat although I tried to like it so hard, lol. It wasn't because I didn't do well or sucked at it or anything, it simply didn't click with me and it's one of those rare occurrences where I also can't comprehend what the appeal really is. It happens. I played through it because I felt maybe I'll "get it" then but that moment never came. It is what it is, it happens. However, I'm curious about the new one. I'd totally be ready for it to grab me.
I just happened to buy the original on sale a few years back. I really got into it. Can’t wait for the sequel.
One of my all time favourites. One thing I do hope is that nighttime is just as terrifying as it was in the first game.
Hated the ps3 version but i loved the ps4 edition and spent a silly amount of time trying to beat bitterblack isle or whatever that hell hole was called..i'll take more of this anyday..
I only just got around to Dragon's Dogma, as picked up in a sale on Switch. I dont know why I waited almost 10 years to play it, it's a truly great game. The lighting at night also looks really nice on the OLED.
Melted 2 original fat-boy 60Gb PS3s (or was it just a co-incidence that I was playing this game when the yellow light started flashing??)
PS4 remaster was very good if a little clunky. Can't wait to see what the next-gen power can produce!
One of my favourite games of all time. I played it again on PC last year and was amazed how well it held up, though the menus are quite clunky and I don't think they'll have quite as much weight management in the inventory next time.
I can’t wait. The sense of adventure the first gave was amazing. I’m very eager to get the next one.
Very ready for this sequel. Hope they have some Berserk outfits this time too, would be a nice tribute to Miura.
One of my all time favorite games! Can’t wait for the next one!
Edit: Anyone else hoping for a multiplayer aspect?
@playstation1995 I don't know about best ever, but it certainly scratch a certain itch for me when it came out.
@brazzios_84 it is to me.dragon dogma is one of the best games ever made.especially as a sorcerer/mage.dragon dogma have the best magic in any games i ever play.word up son
I can't even express how ready I am for this game.
@playstation1995 No
Yes!!! This is the news I've been waiting to hear since my last wait of 10 YEARS just to get official confirmation of DD2 haha! Thankfully this was only a 6 month wait for an update... it can only get better from here on in! I'm guessing 2024 for a possible release 🤞
Please take 2+ years, everyone can wait and they don't need to rush things for profit.
@somnambulance pragmata is listed on the NA ps store on ps5 i just seen it so id look if your interested in it
@brazzios_84 what gives you the right to tell someone no?? its one of his fav games so what if its not yours doesnt mean it cant be his. god i hate ppl like you, self entitled thinking your opinion is the only right one.
@SerJosh97 My opinion gives me the right. I figured that was obvious.
@SerJosh97 Its been wishlisted on my PS5 for over a year. I remember, when the game was announced, 2022 felt like forever to wait. Then it got delayed to 2023 and still we’ve heard nothing! It feels like it’s a big game, so I’m ready to know more about it.
I’ll be surprised if it’s before Q4/2024
