Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen DLC lands on PS5 Oct. 9

Capcom confirmed Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen will launch on PlayStation 5 on Oct. 9. The expansion adds a new explorable region described as focused on endgame content.

Capcom announced the expansion after earlier hints this year but provided few details beyond the release date. The company noted the new area will be substantial in size and intended for players who have completed the base game’s main story.

Capcom has not disclosed whether Dark Arisen will alter core gameplay systems or add new mechanics beyond the new area. The publisher also has not released information on pricing, file size, exact launch timing across regions, or availability on platforms other than PS5.

The expansion’s name and structure mirror the original Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, which added a large post-game area, new enemies and rewards to the first title. Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched in 2024 as an action role-playing game; Dark Arisen is positioned as a post-launch addition for players seeking further high-level content.

Capcom indicated more information will follow; players can expect additional details on content specifics, pricing and platform availability in the coming weeks.
