Update: The release date of Dragon's Dogma 2 was announced during a livestreamed event hosted by Capcom, alongside the reveal of new gameplay and details. 

As leaked earlier today, the release date is confirmed as March 22, 2024, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Alongside the release date, we also get to take a good look at a new enemy, the massive Talos. Interestingly, we also learn about the story, which is actually set in a parallel world compared to the original game.

Talos is really massive.

We also hear about the story and characters that populate it. The plot revolves around a struggle for the throne and the deception of a false arisen. 

On top of that, we take a look at the character creation, quests, and specializations for the pawns, on top of a new advanced vocation, the Trickster. 

Lastly, we take a look at more footage of the Warrior and Sorcerer vocations, on top of more monsters, the Drake and the Dullahan. 

Pre-orders for the game start today, including a Deluxe Edition that comes with the following goodies. Pre-orders grant the Superior Weapons Quarted, while if you pre-order the Deluxe Edition you also get the Ring of Assurance.

Today, Dragon's Dogma 2 director Hideaki Itsuno announced that the release date of the game will be announced tomorrow. 

The announcement, made on the developer's personal X (formerly Twitter) account, mentions that the release date will be "formally" revealed. 

The "formally" is likely a reference to the potential leak by the PEGI rating board, which marked the alleged release date as March 22, 2023.

Itsuno-san's wording feels like a confirmation of the leak, albeit that's just my interpretation and I could be wrong.

Whatever the case, we'll have less than 24 hours to the announcement, which will happen during a livestream tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. PST, 4:00 p.m. EST, 9:00 p.m. GMT, or 10:00 p.m. CEST, depending on where you live. 

The livestream will last 15 minutes and will feature new gameplay reveals for our perusal, so we have more than the release date to look forward to.

It's worth mentioning that Capcom appears to have another big game in store for the next four months, so the Osaka-based publisher and developer may be preparing to throw a powerful one-two punch.

Dragon's Dogma 2 will come to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

If you'd like to hear more about this highly anticipated game directly from Itsuno-san himself and producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, you can read our in-depth interview from Tokyo Game Show.

You can also check out our hands-on preview from an extensive gameplay session including 20 minutes of PS5 gameplay for your perusal. I have to say that I really enjoyed my time with Dragon's Dogma 2, so I'm really looking forward to knowing for sure when it releases.

Of course, you can expect a full report of tomorrow's event, including the release date, here on TechRaptor, as soon the reveal is made.
