FULL STORY ======================================================================

Dragon's Dogma director Hideaki Itsuno has prompted speculation of an
incoming sequel announcement, after retweeting the Capcom Showcase announcement.

The Capcom Showcase, which airs on June 13 , promises "news and in-depth updates on previously announced Capcom titles". As such, it's believed we'll see recently revealed games like Street Fighter 6 and Resident Evil 4 Remake, we're not expecting any fresh confirmations. Still, because Itsuno quickly retweeted this, some are taking this as an announcement sign.

There's been speculation for years that a Dragon's Dogma sequel could be in the works, and Itsuno has frequently commented that he'd like to make one. Dogma's expanded version, Dark Arisen, has since been ported to PS4 , Xbox
One , and Nintendo Switch , to say nothing of 2020's anime adaptation on Netflix. Capcom's rumored sequel was spotted in last year's Nvidia GeForce
Now leak too. Is Dragon's Dogma 2 likely?

Even if Dragon's Dogma 2 doesn't appear at Capcom Showcase, there's significant evidence to suggest its coming. Crucially, the biggest sequel indicator came in November 2020 when the publisher suffered a major
ransomware attack , leaking future plans up until the end of 2024.

Several listed projects have since been officially confirmed, including
Street Fighter 6 , Resident Evil 4 Remake, Resident Evil 4 VR , and The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles' localization. On that list as well Dragon's Dogma
2.

However, it's worth remembering plans can always change. Even if a sequel was in development two years ago, that doesn't guarantee it's still happening. Still, the evidence for Dragon's Dogma 2 existing is pretty strong and with Capcom Showcase, we've only got a week to go before getting an answer. Summer Game Fest 2022 takes place later this week, here's everything you need to know
