Dragon's Dogma 2

Capcom announced Dragon’s Dogma 2 has already sold over 2.5 million copies within a short period since its global debut last month.

The new milestone includes over 2.5 million copies both at retail and via digital storefronts across all platforms. Total sales for the entire series have topped 10 million copies.


Dragon’s Dogma 2 was launched just under two weeks ago on March 22nd, 2024 across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.

Here’s a rundown on the new sequel and the series:

The Dragon’s Dogma series consists of action games in a fantasy setting where players adventure in an expansive open world of swords and magic. Since the release of the first game in 2012, the series garnered praise worldwide for gameplay features such as its “pawn” adventure companions who can carry out actions on their own, leading the series to exceed 10 million units sold cumulatively.

Coming twelve years after the original, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is an action game set in a sprawling open world with a high degree of freedom. The game allows players to enjoy an intricately crafted, all-too-real fantasy setting while providing a taste of adventuring in a group of up to four people all while playing solo thanks to AI-controlled pawn characters that act as travelling companions. Capcom carried out various global-facing promotional activities with the aim of attracting not only long-time fans of the series but newcomers as well, including the launch of a free application that let users create their player avatars prior to the game’s release, as well as in-game pawns made in collaboration with celebrities in various countries and Japanese national athletes.

Updates regarding additions and changes to some specifications for Dragon’s Dogma 2 are being made on an ongoing basis. Details can be found on the game’s official homepage.
