Today Capcom released a new trailer of the upcoming JRPG Dragon's Dogma 2, which is coming close to its worldwide release.

The trailer focuses on the story, providing an overview of what expects us when we enter the game's world.

We won't just find plenty of monsters to fight, but also political intrigue in Vermund, the kingdom ruled by the Arisen, as obscure forces struggle to claim the throne.

Yet, we'll also visit Battahl, the nation of the Beastmen, where we'll have to uncover the country's mysteries among the people's fear of pawns. 

Speaking of pawns, we also get to take a look at Dragon's Dogma 2's extensive character creation, which will let you pick between human and beastmen both for your personal Arisen and your pawns. 

You can check the trailer out below and see if it helps you get excited for the game, if there ever was any need for further help.

Dragon's Dogma 2 will launch for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S in less than two months, on March 22, 2024. 11 years have passed since the original release, and times have definitely matured for a new visit to the world of the game.  

If you'd rather secure the game before it launches, you can pre-order a physical copy for PS5 or one for Xbox Series X|S on Amazon. 

If you're not familiar with the game, I got to play it for a long time at Tokyo Game Show 2023, and I came out of the session rather impressed. You can read how in my hands-on preview also including plenty of gameplay footage recorded directly on PS5.

I also interviewed director Hideaki Itsuno and producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, who shared additional details and insight on what you can expect from this highly-anticipated JRPG.
