Dragon's Dogma 2 Demo Possibly Coming Soon

Feb 19, 2024 8:17 AM

Rumors are circulating about a possible demo release for the highly anticipated "Dragon's Dogma 2" on Steam. Excitement is building in the gaming community as an "unknown app" tagged with "free on demand" has been spotted on the Steam backend, suggesting that there could be a trial version offered before the game's official launch. "Dragon's Dogma 2" is set to release on March 22 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam. The sequel is building on the legacy of its predecessor, which has gained a cult following since its original release in 2012. The upcoming title boasts of 'pawns' – AI-controlled characters – to provide the illusion of cooperative gameplay in what remains a purely single-player experience.

What is Dragon's Dogma?

Dragon's Dogma is an action role-playing video game that debuted in 2012. Developed and published by Capcom, the game was praised for its open-world environment, dynamic combat system, and unique 'pawn' system that allows players to recruit other fighters to aid in battle. Its expanded edition, "Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen" was later released on various platforms, including PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch. The series even inspired a seven-episode anime series on Netflix in 2020, further solidifying its place in popular culture.
