Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen Launches October 9 on PS5, Switch 2, Xbox, and PC

Capcom announced Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, a new version of the open-world action game, for release on October 9 across PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The base game gets a price cut and two major updates precede the launch.

Capcom will release Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen on October 9 for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The full game costs 5,990 yen, and a standalone expansion DLC for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S is priced at 2,990 yen. Dark Arisen introduces the frozen land Norgan, where players appraise Relics and fight alongside the character Eil against an undead immortal dragon. Twelve dungeon types, new hairstyles, and tattoo customization for the Arisen and pawns are also included.

Two free updates roll out before the expansion: one on June 10 adds fast travel, movement options, and pawn adjustments, and another around the end of August delivers system improvements including an engine update. The download version of the original Dragon's Dogma 2 drops to 4,990 yen starting June 25. Pre-orders and early purchases of Dark Arisen include the Norgan Attire Set as a bonus.
