Dragon's Dogma 2 Copies Out In The Wild, Someone Has Already Streamed It
Dragon's Dogma 2 may have already broken street date, as someone has already livestreamed some of their playthrough on Twitch. They claimed to have bought the game from Walmart which, if true, means more early copies may be out there in the wild, alongside story spoilers.

In any case, fans should be mindful of spoilers being shared online, even if it looks like Capcom is being proactive in taking footage down.
Of course, if you want to check out some gameplay, official previews are already live.
