Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen is a huge open world game presenting a rewarding action combat experience. Players embark on an adventure through a rich world with three AI companions, known as Pawns, who fight independently utilising abilities and traits learned from the user’s play style.

Pawns can be shared online by PC users, and reap bountiful treasure rewards for defeating terrifying enemies. Specific skills may be needed to complete various challenges, and Pawns can be borrowed between users to achieve these quests.

After a decade-long wait, Dragon’s Dogma 2 was announced on June 16 although it is still unknown which platforms it will release on and when.
