Dragon's Dogma 2 is Capcom's action RPG follow-up to the 2012 cult favorite, casting players as the Arisen on a journey across the vast realm of Vermund. It builds on the original's core idea of climbable, grabbable monsters and AI companions called Pawns, who can be shared between players to bring knowledge of quests and enemy tactics into each person's own game.
The game emphasizes open-ended exploration and emergent, physics-driven combat, with multiple vocations to choose from, a day-night cycle that changes the danger of the world, and large-scale monster encounters that reward tactical thinking over brute force.
