Dragon’s Dogma is yet another RPG coming out this season. With Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning out the gates, this game finally has some time in the spotlight and boy does it look good. Dragon’s Dogma puts the player in the shoes of the “Arisen” a person with great power whose goal is to track down the dragon that stole his/her heart and get it back.
Today, Capcom released a new trailer for Dragon’s Dogma that highlights some of its spectacular gameplay. If you have a twitter, you might want to retweet the trailer for a chance to win the first DLC for FREE. This $7 DLC contains 100 side quests that offer a wealth of loot for players to get their hands upon. Including these side quests as DLC is incredibly shady on Capcom’s part, but I suppose there’s nothing we can do about it, that is until somebody cracks the disc and unveils the rest of the locked content. Until then, hit the jump to read up on what Dragon’s Dogma has to offer!
Although the story doesn’t really sound like anything we haven’t already heard, it’s the gameplay that really captivates me. Dragon’s Dogma looks to offer the great combat found in Reckoning as well a deep experience like that found in other RPGs.
The highlight of Dragon’s Dogma isn’t just on its combat – which has some beautiful animations and effects – but also upon its Pawn System. You see, traveling around the world of Dragon’s Dogma can be dangerous, so you’ll need some companions, that’s where the Pawns come into play. Pawns are essentially secondary characters that can be customized to your liking to aid you on your quest. Your pawn is connected to Dragon’s Dogma‘s online Pawn trading system which allows other players to download and use your pawn, allowing him to gain knowledge about quests and the world. Although co-op online would have been nice, the Pawn system is an ample supplement.
Dragon’s Dogma will be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on May 22 in North America and May 25 in Europe.
