Dragon's Dogma 2 only launched a few days ago, and yet CAPCOM has already sent out a survey to players asking whether they'd be interested in purchasing DLC.
The previous installment in the franchise famously got Dark Arisen, which featured additional content like the extra dungeon of Bitterblack Isle, around a year after the release of the base game. Of course, whether Dragon's Dogma 2 gets its own Dark Arisen will likely depend on the sales.
So far, CAPCOM hasn't said anything. We only have partial data, like the latest UK retail chart, where the game ranked #2 on its debut week after EA Sports FC and ahead of Nintendo's Princess Peach: Showtime. Steam data, on the other hand, shows a concurrent player peak of 228K, which is not bad but not great, either. Of course, there's also the matter of the current user dissatisfaction over microtransactions and suboptimal performance, which translates into 'Mixed' average user reviews (55% approval rating)
However, Dragon's Dogma 2 reviewed very well with critics. Moreover, CAPCOM has already announced some of the planned updates to fix at least some of the issues people have with the game.

Its peerless sense of exploration, meaty combat system, and stunning visuals will motivate you throughout the entire playthrough. Just don't expect to find a fantasy world simulator
