Dragon's Dogma 2's upcoming Dark Arisen expansion is shaping up to be a proper feast for those of us who've been waiting for an excuse to subject ourselves to more doomed oxcart rides. The last 24 hours have brought a number of fresh interviews with the developers of the DD2 expansion, and from the sounds of it, they've been doing plenty of cooking.
In a talk with Automaton, DD2: Dark Arisen director Kento Kinoshita and producer Naoto Oyama laid out a hefty feature list: When the expansion lands in October, it'll add a new northern region for high level characters featuring new story content and a repeatable, randomized loot chase. The base game, meanwhile, will get 12 new "Last Rites" dungeons, offering powerful gear and experience gains that can catapult low-level characters up to expansion parity.
