The people in charge at Capcom have released a trailer for Dragon’s Dogma 2 that every RPG fan should watch for two reasons. First, a well-known actor with his wonderful narrator voice presents the role-playing game in detail. Second, there has not been a video that has displayed areas like the combat system as impressively.
Which actor presents Dragon’s Dogma 2? The British actor Ian McShane guides you through the world and features of the new Capcom role-playing game. You surely know him as the hotel manager and good friend of John Wick.
The award-winning actor has also appeared in films such as Pillars of the Earth, Hellboy – Call of Darkness, or Pirates of the Caribbean – On Stranger Tides. Many series are also part of his resume. Most recently, he had a guest appearance in One Piece.
Here you can see the trailer for one of the most versatile classes in the game – the Warlord:
The Brit is also a prolific voice actor, lending his fantastic voice to animated characters – for example, in Coraline, Kung Fu Panda, Shrek the Third, or The Golden Compass.
What is the new trailer about? In over seven minutes, Ian McShane presents various areas of Dragon’s Dogma 2. You can expect background information about your Awakened character, who must confront a powerful dragon, and his minions.
Additionally, you will be introduced to the two nations of Vermund and Battahl and their respective characteristics. While the Awakened in Vermund is treated like a monarch crowned by fate, the tribes from Battahl view him as an outsider who brings great misfortune.
In the last third of the video, you will learn more about the monsters of Dragon’s Dogma 2, complemented by numerous gameplay scenes showcasing the role-playing game’s combat system. But it’s best to just check out YouTube for yourself (it can only be viewed there due to age restrictions).
What does the community say about the trailer? In the comments on YouTube, many players express their enthusiasm:
- Aerhelios writes: “This is the best trailer for Dragon’s Dogma 2 so far.”
- pablokusanagi5868 raves: “Ian has such a godlike voice, holy crap, that was amazing.”
- Even theclapbackking8291 leaves praise: “The fights come across even better in this video than in the previous ones.”
- “I had goosebumps during the introduction of the monsters. This is clearly the game I am most looking forward to,” summarizes YouTube user carllabissiere his viewing experience.
What is Dragon’s Dogma 2 again? This is the sequel to a role-playing game by Capcom from 2012, which will be released on March 22, 2024, for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
Features of the series include the flexible class system revolving around classes as well as the ability to embark on the adventure alongside several minions (even from other players).
However, there is no optional co-op mode. Dragon’s Dogma 2 is an action role-playing game that focuses entirely on the single-player experience. Consequently, the designers place great emphasis on the realism of the world, where travelers, merchants, and soldiers go about their daily routines, each having their own goals and motivations.
