Your Unwritten Epic Begins in Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen

Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen enriches the dynamic fantasy world and expansive adventures of Dragon’s Dogma 2 with unforgettable new tales and thrilling encounters, while bringing the pulse-pounding action game to Nintendo Switch 2 for the first time. Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen releases for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X on the 9th of October 2026. The Dark Arisen Expansion will also be available separately as DLC for the base game on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.

The Dark Arisen Expansion summons the Arisen to the long-abandoned Northern region of Norgan, where they must join forces with the enigmatic Eir to unravel the secrets of the undying Fallen Dragon. Throughout their journey, the Arisen must unearth and appraise forgotten relics to unlock powerful new weapons and skills. The expansion also introduces 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges. These freshly uncovered dungeons house trials designed by the Pathfinder to sharpen the Arisen’s skills and recover rare equipment once held by past Arisen that now lay dormant. Arisen, looking to tailor their appearance, will also gain access to new options added to the robust Character Creator, including new hairstyles and tattoos.

In the lead-up to the Dark Arisen Expansion, there will be two major updates to enhance the gameplay experience of the base game. Today’s update makes fast travel more accessible with the addition of the reusable Eternal Ferrystone alongside other quality-of-life adjustments for various parts of gameplay. The second update, coming at the end of August, brings improved frame rates, additional save slots, and further refinements to the quality-of-life adjustments.
