Maybe sooner
The PS4 has been so successful for Sony that it's been keeping the console going for longer than many expected.

News Dragon's Dogma 10th Anniversary Website Opens, Asks Fans to Join in 'Momentous Celebration'
Capcom, please
Don't do this to us, Capcom. Don't go making a website specifically to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Dragon's Dogma and then act like we haven't spent the last decade asking for a sequel.
