Dragon's Dogma 2 players are still eagerly waiting for expansion DLC more than a year after the release of the fantasy action-RPG. While there is some evidence to suggest that DLC for Dragons Dogma 2 is in the works, the fan base remains divided over its validity, though its most loyal members remain ravenous for additional content.

The release of Dragon's Dogma 2 in March 2024 saw mixed reviews from users. With a nearly 12-year gap between the first two full entries in the series, fans reacted positively to its improvements over the original, with special attention being given to the massive monsters, wide variety of combat styles associated with different weapon groups, and an equipment enhancement system that provides several options for building the strongest character. However, one of the biggest questions since its release is when DLC would be arriving.

That debate has been sparked once again by the apparent leaked reveal of Dragon's Dogma 2 DLC via datamining efforts, which were first uncovered in early March. Publisher and developer Capcom has yet to release any official comment regarding the development of expansion DLC, but that hasn't stopped the recent rise in demand among players craving additional content. A new wave of posts on forums like Reddit show that fans are more than willing to dive into new content if it is ever released, with fans sharing memes and questions of when they'll finally get more Dragon's Dogma 2.

While some players have given up hope for a future DLC following more than a year of silence from the developer, others have singled out another piece of evidence in the form of a Capcom survey mentioning Dragon's Dogma 2 DLC plans. Started just weeks after the game's launch, part of this survey asked players questions like how likely they would be to purchase content-heavy DLC and how much they would be willing to spend on it. Many view the gap of more than a year since the survey's release as a sign that DLC will never be coming, though others have pointed out that modern game development takes a lot of time, and they see Capcom's early questioning of DLC plans as a good sign of things to come.

Fans may not have been getting all they desire out of post-release content, but sporadic support remains active more than a year after the game's release, with new updates for Dragon's Dogma 2 still addressing minor issues with the base game like inventory management and the registration of achievements. While past updates have added improvements like a Casual Mode, they are a far cry from the rumored endgame dungeon and multiplayer and boss rush modes revealed in the leaks. Even some of those who trust the evidence are showing caution, however, with the absence of series director Hideaki Itsuno, who left Capcom last August.
