“For players that only focus on the things [to] go through the [game’s campaign], the playtime itself shouldn’t change that dramatically from the first game,” Itsuno tells me through a translator. “For the people that want to do everything, that see many things and are like, ‘Oh, I want to do this thing, oh that looks interesting,’ well, we put a lot of effort into adding as many elements as possible for this. There’s many things that could catch players’ attention and for those people, they will probably find their playtime significantly longer.”
For reference, a completionist run of Dragon’s Dogma runs, on average, about 102 hours, according to HowLongToBeat, meaning Dragon’s Dogma 2 likely offers more than a hundred hours of content to discover and play through if you seek it out.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on March 22.
