We’ve got exciting news for fans of Capcom’s action-packed role-playing adventure Dragon’s Dogma – the long-anticipated sequel, Dragon’s Dogma II, might be arriving after a decade-long wait. Although an official release date is yet to be confirmed, recent developments suggest that the title is in the final stages of its development.

Dragon’s Dogma II has received a rating in Saudi Arabia, indicating it is nearing the end of its development cycle. The news was shared through the official X account of the General Authority of Media Regulation, @VGAR_SA.

The translated post states “The return of one of the most anticipated games after an absence of 10 years. Dragon Dogma 2 is rated suitable for ages 18 and above.” This revelation has sparked heightened anticipation among fans eagerly awaiting the sequel’s arrival.

Earlier in the year, Capcom revealed it has an unannounced title on the way before the end of its current fiscal year next March. At the time, many people speculated the title would be either a Monster Hunter installment or an entry in the Ace Attorney franchise. However, with Dragon Dogma II’s rating a new challenger has appeared.

It’s essential to note that, as of now, there has been no official announcement from Capcom regarding the action role-playing title. The rating, while suggestive, remains speculative until confirmed by the company.

Capcom first announced Dragon’s Dogma II in June of 2022 during the game’s 10th anniversary celebration. Since the initial announcement, the studio has treated fans to a trailer and a nine-minute gameplay footage, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the upcoming video game in which it looks like we’ll be able to do absolutely everything

Dragon's Dogma II will be playable on the PlayStation 5 as well as Xbox Series X and S.

If the video game is anything like what the footage suggests, then Dragon’s Dogma fans are in for a treat. The trailer showcased a meticulously crafted, lively world featuring new adversaries and elements. The gameplay footage hinted at dynamic combat sequences reminiscent of the beloved original game. Also, fishing. 

While the release date for Dragon’s Dogma II remains undisclosed, it is anticipated to be available on all major gaming consoles – Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. In the meantime, gamers can explore other Capcom releases this year, including Exoprimal, Resident Evil 4 remake, and Street Fighter 6.
