Dragon's Dogma 2 is set to become more affordable and improved two years after its launch.
Although some reviews have called Dragon's Dogma 2 an "unforgettable adventure," its DLC policy and performance have been criticized by some fans. Capcom is now making amends by permanently lowering the game's price, likely not least to fuel the hype for the upcoming expansion.

Capcom has announced a series of changes on the official Dragon's Dogma 2 website that players can expect in the coming weeks and months. With this, the publisher is evidently preparing the open-world adventure for the launch of its first major expansion – Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is set to release on October 9, 2026, for $29.99.

On June 25, 2026, the game’s price is set to be permanently reduced, though Capcom has not yet confirmed the list price at which Dragon’s Dogma 2 will be offered in the future. Currently, the game costs $69.99 on Steam, but starts at $26 on Amazon depending on the platform.
 


In addition, sales of numerous DLCs are scheduled to end on June 25, including the following content:

  • Dragon's Dogma 2 Deluxe Edition
  • A Boon for Adventurers - New Journey Pack
  • Harpysnare Smoke Beacons - Harpy Lure Item
  • Heartfelt Pendant - A Thoughtful Gift
  • Ambivalent Rift Incense - Change Pawn Inclinations
  • Makeshift Gaol Key - Escape from Gaol
  • Art of Metamorphosis - Character Editor
  • Portcrystal - Warp Location Marker
  • Wakestone - Restore the Dead to Life
  • 500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
  • 1500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
  • 2500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift

Most of this DLC content has "mostly negative" reviews on Steam. Instead of charging real money for a Warp Location Marker, for example, Capcom is introducing a permanent Destination Crystal via an update, which is intended to make fast travel significantly more convenient. A second update, set to be released toward the end of August, is intended to improve performance and add additional save slots, among other improvements.
