Dragon's Dogma 2 players think that developer Capcom could be on its way to making a huge announcement regarding the title's DLC, as they have spotted changes to the game's files on its Steam page. Dragon's Dogma 2 was one of 2024's most anticipated games, and, for the most part, it received glowing feedback from the gaming community. Despite the early controversy around the game's microtransactions, which turned out to be misinformation in the end, the sequel to Dragon's Dogma was viewed by players as a leap forward from its predecessor.

Recently, Hideaki Itsuno announced his departure from Capcom. During his 30-year-long period at the company, Itsuno was in charge of some of the Japanese developer's biggest games, including Dragon's Dogma 2 and Devil May Cry 5. However, the industry veteran has vowed to keep making games and has asked fans to watch this space for his "next creation." In the meantime, fans are hoping for an upcoming announcement about Itsuno's last Capcom game.

Dragon's Dogma 2: 8 Things To Do After Beating The Game

The fun doesn't stop after players beat Dragon's Dogma 2 for the first time. There are still plenty of things to do after beating the game.

On Reddit, numerous Dragon's Dogma 2 fans believe that they have found encrypted edits to the game's Steam page that could suggest its developers are cooking something from behind the scenes, indicating an upcoming DLC. Over the past week, players noticed that Capcom made quite a lot of edits, leading some excited fans to conjure up the idea that an announcement might be on the horizon. Despite industry challenges, Capcom broke records with Dragon's Dogma 2's release, reaching the highest game sales in company history. However, other than a few patches, there had been no mention of the game getting an expansion, which not only confused Dragon's Dogma 2's dedicated player base but frustrated them as they had been crying out for DLC since the title had been so successful.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 Players Think DLC Announcement Is on the Horizon

There is the possibility that Capcom is saving this exciting piece of news for the Tokyo Game Show happening later this month and looking to surprise fans with a huge DLC reveal. Some of the changes that players could see in Dragon's Dogma 2's DLC are a host of new enemy types due to the lack of foes found in the main game. Players may also get a reduction in the frequency of pawn chatter and a better transmog system.

One of the most divisive features in Capcom's game is Dragon's Dogma 2's fast-travel. The mode of transport for players has been a frustrating point due to spending ages walking from one location to another, since there are no mounts in the game, and how expensive Ferrystones are, too. Dragon Dogma 2 players will just have to wait to see if the DLC is indeed announced in the upcoming weeks and, if so, it'll be interesting to see what direction the expansion will be taken in.
