On March 22, Capcom released action RPG Dragon’s Dogma 2 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game is a sequel to Dragon’s Dogma which was released in 2012.
Within a day, the game became Capcom’s biggest singleplayer game launch with an all-time peak concurrent player count on steam of 228,285 players, beating out Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Village.
Despite the significant launch, the game sat at 38% positive reviews (“mostly negative”) on Steam on launch day, climbing to 52% positive reviews (“mixed”) as of March 25. Many negative reviews mentioned Capcom’s usage of microtransactions for in-game items immediately after it launched.
The game was also criticized for its poor performance even on high-end systems, as well as the inability to create multiple save files without deleting the previous one. In a post a few hours after launch, Capcom emphasized that the microtransaction items were all obtainable through the course of play.
