Description

Dragon’s Dogma is an exciting new franchise which redefines the action genre from the team that produced some of Capcom’s greatest action games. Set in a huge open world, Dragon’s Dogma offers an exhilarating and fulfilling action combat game with the freedom to explore and interact in a rich, living and breathing world. Alongside your party of three, you set out to track down and destroy a mysterious dragon.

Your teammates fight independently of you, demonstrating prowess and ability they have developed based on traits learned over time from you and your actions. Dragon’s Dogma offers a near endless opportunity to help develop partner characters to fight alongside you. With an epic story and incredible action, Dragon’s Dogma is set to be one of Capcom’s newest hit franchises.

Features:
  • Highly Stylized Action Combat – The creators of this game were responsible for the action hits – Resident Evil 4 and Devil May Cry 4.
  • Fight With Ability –The soul of combat comes down to how the game is played, where you strike the enemy, and how you react to their attacks
  • Accessible Depth – Bringing an unprecedented level of depth to the action genre, every decision has an effect on gameplay in an intuitive way that does not require micromanagement. The weight of your weapon, the material of your armor – even the length of your legs – plays a role in how you fight your battles, but does not interrupt the flow of the action.
  • Epic Adventure – Dragon’s Dogma is built from the ground up as an action experience for consoles with a continuous, epic storyline that stands alone in style, scope and substance.
  • Open World – Utilizing Capcom’s proprietary MT Framework engine and the groundbreaking graphical styles and lighting effects used in Resident Evil 5 and Lost Planet 2, Dragon’s Dogma expands the environment to create a vast, richly detailed world, ripe for exploration.
  • A Rich Population – In addition to interacting with hundreds of fully voiced NPCs, you’ll be able to fight a large variety of creatures, from goblins to griffins and dragons. Each enemy requires a different strategy and provides a unique experience.

5 stars "I disagree.."

While Gavin says try before you buy, I have to disagree. I also played the demo, and I didn't expect the best gameplay to be honest, but after actually playing it, I was greatly surprised at how it felt. There was no input lag, everything felt really smooth, and it looked fantastic while you slaughter Goblins and climb up the side of a Griffon. I loved it. Yes, it may seem button mashy to some, but if anyone has played the Devil May Cry series, you will find that the button combos are great just like in DMC. You have skill sets which are easily accessed and feel powerful when you use them, and the dual wielding for daggers is fast, smooth, and look great. The Sword and shield gameplay felt great while playing as the fighter. Unfortunately you cannot play as the Mage in the demo, but the mages skills look fantastic. If you can get skills to work together you can form combos with them that do a lot of damage and look amazing. I know I'm talking the game up a lot from only the demo, but I loved it. After playing through the demo at least 15 times, I've pre-ordered the game and can't wait until friday. If you get the chance to play the demo, do it. I can't say the game is for everyone, but I can say that this is the only game where I actually made a few of my mates come around and play the demo for themselves, just to see how good it is. I do recommend playing the demo or renting this game first if you're new to this style of game.. I deleted the demo, just so that I have to make myself wait for Friday and have that amazingly satisfying feeling I had when I first played the demo. Can't wait. :D

"Check out the demo..."

Don't forget to check out the demo for this available on Wed 25th April. You will be able to customize your character and carry them over to the full game when released on 25th May......... Also remember that Dragon's Dogma comes with a code that will allow you early access to the Resident Evil 6 Demo!!

3 stars "Hire it first...."

Played the demo of this recently, and while it looked great, the gameplay I felt was average, very “button basher” friendly. Just from the demo, I'd say to make it a “try before you buy” title…hire it from video store first.
