During PlayStation’s State of Play event yesterday, Capcom debuted a new action-packed Dragon’s Dogma 2 combat trailer.
The new nearly two-minute-long action trailer focuses on the game’s combat, and shows the new Warfarer Vocation gameplay. This new character class can be used exclusively by the Arisen, and learn different skills from each Vocation. “By using diverse weapons, the Warfarer can respond to any situation and create combos that cross Vocational boundaries” Capcom writes in its official press release that came with the new trailer. “The Warfarer’s lower base stats require them to utilize the situational strengths of different weapon types to be on par with other Vocations with specialized strengths”. A screenshot fo the new Warfarer class can be found at the top of this page.
We’ve included the brand-new trailer as debuted during Sony’s broadcast below. We’ve also included a set of fresh screenshots are shared by Capcom:
Dragonsplague
Dragonsplague is a contagious disease-like condition that infects pawns as they travel between worlds. Rather than being weakened, Pawns with the disease are said to display remarkable performance, and to become conspicuously bold in their speech and behavior. According to folklore, when the symptoms of dragonsplague reach a terminal stage, it will result in devastating calamity, but the veracity of those claims is unclear.
Vocational Mastery
On your travels, you will encounter vocation maisters who have mastered their chosen vocation to the fullest. By deepening your relationship with a vocation maister and gaining their approval, you can gain access to their Vocation, or they may grant you special tomes that teach skills of the highest order, the “maister’s teachings”. The Fighter maister, Lennart, has long served the fortress village of Melve.
With his exceptional swordsmanship and leadership skills, he has held the fort together to protect the land from the Dragon. Meanwhile, the Mystic Spearhand maister Sigurd hunts dragons for his own personal reasons. He is a quiet man with an inquisitive mind, and he constantly trains to improve his fighting skills and unique style. Formerly the court Oracle of Vermund, the Trickster maister Luz is currently in hiding out of fear for her life over speaking out against the false Arisen taking the throne.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is slated for a release next month on March 22 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. As covered earlier this week, the game is rumored to be targeting 30FPS on consoles.
