Capcom may be preparing to announce DLC for its action role-playing game, Dragon’s Dogma 2, in the near future.
Going by the recent changes made to Dragon’s Dogma 2 game files on Steam (via SteamDB), it looks like the game may be set to receive some major DLC sometime soon. A quick look at the game files reveals that a number of encrypted DLC updates have been made over the last week.
Several DLC files are listed as SteamDB Unknown Apps, and they appear to have been added to the database 6 months ago. This suggests that the content has been in development for at least 6 months. Capcom has yet to make a statement on these findings, and it’s unlikely that it will. However, going by the regular updates to the Dragon’s Dogma 2 game files, an official announcement is likely to be on the horizon.
Since its launch on March 22, 2024, Dragon’s Dogma 2 has been criticized over the handling of its paid DLC. For those who have been following the game, you’ve likely encountered a range of reviews for Dragon’s Dogma 2, many of which have been positive, including ours. It’s important to note that the DLC available in the official store does not fit the typical definition of microtransactions. These additional purchases are not necessary to complete or fully enjoy the game. This approach to DLC is consistent with other games published by Capcom. This hasn’t helped the PC version of Dragon’s Dogma 2 from getting mixed reviews on Steam. The game is designed mainly as a single-player experience, and the available DLC does not enhance this aspect in any significant way. The idea that the DLC is essential to enjoy the game is entirely unfounded.
