Dragon’s Dogma 2 has surpassed 2.5 million sales

While there has been plenty of criticism of Dragon's Dogma 2, the game still drew in positive critic reviews and high player counts at launch. Since its release on the 21st of March, the game has managed to surpass 2.5 million copies sold. 

For comparison, the original Dragon's Dogma and its re-release had sold around 7.5 million copies over the span of a decade. With Dragon's Dogma 2's 2.5 million sales added to the mix, the franchise as a whole has surpassed 10 million sales.

These launch numbers are close to the Resident Evil Remake games and newer titles like Street Fighter 6. However, the real test will be in the game's long-term sales, which could be boosted by the addition of new content.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is in many ways supposed to be the full realisation of the ideas the original game put forward. It isn't a direct story continuation of the first game, so potential buyers can jump in without fear of being lost. With that said, Dragon's Dogma is also a mechanically intense game, so there will be a lot for you to learn and manage.

It tends to take a lot for gamers to 'forgive' a studio after messing up a launch, for instance CD Projekt Red had to spend three additional years developing Cyberpunk 2077 before many were willing to give the game another shot. In the case of Helldivers 2, despite the game having some rough server issues at launch, the game turned out to be so good that many players simply waited things out, without leaving a trail of negative reviews. Now, a case of incredibly poor communication and a poorly thought-out plan from the game's publisher, Sony, has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy, with the game being removed from over 170 countries.
