TV and film actor Ian McShane has lent his voice to a comprehensive overview trailer for Dragon's Dogma 2 ahead of its PS5 launch next week. Clocking in at just shy of eight minutes, the Deadwood star introduces you to the sequel's story, world, the pawns you can recruit, and the monsters you'll face throughout your journey. Check it out above.

As McShane explains, a dragon selects a challenger by claiming their heart from their body and having them rise as the Arisen. With this mark on your custom character, you'll need to put a crew together and become powerful enough to slay the beast once and for all. Along the way, you'll meet a variety of unique bosses to take down, utilising different classes and a deep combat system. The game releases on the same day as PS5 exclusive Rise of the Ronin: 22nd March 2024.

Has McShane's voiceover got you even more excited for next Friday? Let us know in the comments below.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he can be found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.

This is excellent. He could've easily phoned this in if he wanted to, but he clearly didn't. As if I didn't want this game enough already.

Ian McShane is one of the best ways to sell me on a game. Anyone else here used to watch Lovejoy?

I hope Capcom paid him more than a tenner for this.

N.i.c.e. dragon dogma 2 looks amazing.and i know the mage class is the best just like the mage/sorcerer in the iconic dragon dogma dark arisen.word up son

@AK4tywill Classic. I would watch it with my parents when I was little.

The Continental in Dragon's Dogma 2 confirmed!

@AK4tywill He's very good in Sexy Beast and the John Wick films, too

Time to watch Deadwood again

It only makes sense, seeing John Wick being made in character creator. Only adult sized wolves will be harmed in my play through

We can only hope for as much profanity in Dragon's Dogma 2

Oh lord, keep with me on this one, people. Tipping is controversial at the best of times. A suggestion that we bring a tip option to video games is going to be met with all kinds of resistance. But you know, it makes sense.
