Dragon's Dogma DLC To Be Released For Free

Capcom announced a free 'Challenge Pack' DLC, which will feature a 'Hard Mode' and 'Time Attack Mode' with new gear to go with it. Slated to be released for early December.

I find it funny these days how they have to mention something is free, when it damn well should be as you said.

I don't mind paying for extra content, like an expansion or something, but for a hard mode and time attack mode? Hell no.

What is gaming coming to when we have to thank people for giving away 'free' DLC when it should be. If only we could still unlock clothing for characters in fighting games, instead of being told to buy them separately.

I'm scared of next-gen TBH, I really am when it comes to DLC. It can only get worse.

Satoes4162d ago

Yeah, I agree with every word. When I wrote the article, the whole time I was thinking "shouldn't these modes already be part of the game?"

It's starting to get pretty ridiculous.

DLC's before even releasing the game
Pass code or even games attached to one console
paying for online
one account for a console
expensive games
expensive memory cards like in vita
...etc

it is scary thinking what will they limit next , you dont own what you buy -.- ...

Wow Capcom, finally did something right

jony_dols4162d ago

Capcom giving away DLC for free?!

2012 Doomsday is truly upon us!

brish4162d ago

Doomsday isn't until next Dec 21, 2012 according to the Mayans.

I'm doing my part. I'm not getting anyone who believes it christmas presents!

To everyone else, merry christmas!

Haters gonna hate and I wanna hate Capcom but it's nice to see them acknowledge their fan's feelings towards DLC and actually release free stuff. They still have a long way to go but it's a step in the right direction.

achmetha4162d ago

maybe multiple characters too? ehh...i hope...

MysticStrummer4162d ago

Dragon's Dogma Is Still Amazing

Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.

A lot of the quest lines in Skyrim are good(not all and they don’t add up as a whole if you do thieves guild mage fighters guild etc) The dragons are very lame after the first few times and the combat is clunky as it always has been. The stupid sprint button is ridiculous.

Overall I agree DD is the better rpg game.

Both have theirs strengths and weaknesses but Skyrim should be so much more being the 5th game in Elder Scrolls series.

Excited to see what they add on to DD 2.

Unfortunately all they have done to Elder Scrolls since Morrowind is take things out (minus the sprint button which is so lame because you can kill dragon god like creatures but can’t run for more than ten seconds without getting tired)

anast45d ago (Edited 45d ago )

I liked the vampire questline and the return to Morrowind was okay, but the problem with Skyrim was the lack of consequence. There is almost no point in the quests. After I realized this, I started messing around with the mods and then quit playing. Though, I did spend 300 hrs. on modded content, but this is telling of how bad the game kind of is.

If DD was the size or close to the size of Skyrim, It would have been the primer fantasy game back then. I hope they up the size with DD2.

5 Games To Play While Waiting For Dragon's Dogma II

Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.

gold_drake95d ago

cant wait for it, feb and march are busy busy months ha.

SovereignSnaKe95d ago

I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.

MrNinosan94d ago

I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.

DivineHand12594d ago

Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.

The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.

For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
