The update for Dragon's Dogma 2 sparks speculation about a major DLC

Dragon’s Dogma 2, the acclaimed RPG from Capcom, has surprised the community with a recent update of 77.75 GB, suggesting the possibility of a significant expansion or DLC.

This size is noteworthy, given that the original game takes up around 70 GB, which implies that the new features could include considerable additional content, similar to what has been seen in other successful expansions in the genre.

New Characters and Regions

The SteamDB changelist has been essential for tracking these changes, as it thoroughly records all updates, expansions, and modifications in the games on the platform. As a prominent user on Reddit has pointed out, the magnitude of this update has sparked speculation about what it could include, with hypotheses ranging from a simple game improvement to new endgame mechanics and new characters.

Among the names most mentioned by the community for possible DLC are Dark Arisen and The Dragon Princess. There has also been talk of the inclusion of the Alchemist and Monk vocations, along with new challenges, such as dungeons, unique bosses, and a revamped loot system that encourages players to explore even more of the world of Gransys. This new content could also include roguelite elements that would offer a more diverse and engaging gameplay experience.

Additionally, rumors about the northern region of Organ have gained strength following recent sightings of griffins in that area, further fueling the community’s expectations. An official image celebrating the game’s anniversary, which featured a mysterious character, along with an in-game letter confirming these sightings, suggests that this could be the setting for future adventures.

The official reveal of this additional content could come at any moment, and the game’s followers will be on the lookout for news from Capcom, although, of course, they will continue to create their own theories.
