The cheapest way to buy Dragon's Dogma 2 in Australia
The long-awaited follow up to Capcom's fantasy RPG is almost here.
Dragon's Dogma 2 is the follow-up to a 12-year-old RPG which didn't exactly set the world on fire upon its 2012 release, but has since become a cult classic. Director Hideaki Itsuno is better know for the Devil May Cry and Rival Schools series', but Dragon's Dogma 2 is an entirely different affair: it's a complex, challenging open world roleplaying game with gargantuan climbable foes and some very unique companion systems.
The Australian release date for Dragon's Dogma 2 is March 22, and it won't be receiving a physical PC release in Australia. That means you won't be able to buy Dragon's Dogma 2 for PC at EB Games, JB Hi-Fi or Amazon, unless you're getting the game for PS5 or Xbox.
Robin had hands-on with Dragon's Dogma 2 last September, and he was definitely very enthusiastic about it. "This is still a series that plays by no one's logic but its own, and its unique identity shines through as clearly in that frying pan as it does in every road walked, every goblin hurled, and every troll triumphantly exploded," he wrote.
With no further ado, here are the cheapest places to buy Dragon's Dogma 2 for PC in Australia.
