expectation Dragon’s Dogma 2 It’s been huge since the title was announced, and at Polaris-Con 2023 I finally got a chance to get a first look at this long-awaited RPG. In the demo available on PS5, you can choose between three classes: Archer, Warrior, and Rogue, with Rogue being a brand new class to the franchise. Each class offers a unique quest with a different boss at the end, which already gives an indication of the variety and depth of the game.
Rogue experience
My choice falls on Disease, a class that specializes in speed and damage. The demo took me on a path full of dangers, including an encounter with Cyclops. Climbing giants and planting bombs demonstrate the strategic depth of the game in an exciting way. But Cyclops was not an easy target; His counterattack was a serious threat.
Strategic gameplay
The face-off with Cyclops was eye-opening. Instead of simple button breaking, a strategic approach leads to success. Even smaller enemies required careful strategy, which demonstrated the high level of challenge in Dragon’s Dogma 2 and led seamlessly to the next insight: the importance of team dynamics and different skills.
Skills and team dynamics
The villain’s various abilities, such as the helmet splitter and the ability to control fellow combatants with commands, complemented the tactical gameplay nicely. My teammates, who provided support in difficult situations, were an essential part of the gaming experience.
Graphical brightness with minor blemishes
The stunning graphics continue to captivate me, even with the occasional lag. High-quality visual presentation and atmospheric game world promise a lot for the final version of the game.
Our conclusion
My brief time with Dragon’s Dogma 2 was fulfilling and left me wanting more. The combined challenges, character classes, and impressive visuals have fueled anticipation for what’s to come, making the game one of the most anticipated titles of next year.
