You May Want To Hold Off On Getting Dragon’s Dogma 2 On PC (For Now)
screenrant.comCapcom's highly anticipated fantasy RPG, is finally due to be released on March 22, 2024, more than a decade after the release of the original game, but PC players may want to hold off on purchasing the game for now.

This news will likely be disappointing for PC players, especially considering the kind of hardware they have in some builds that surpasses those on consoles. Fortunately, Capcom is currently addressing the issue and looking to improve in the future, so hopefully, players won't have to wait too long before the game runs smoothly on all devices.
