Dragon's Dogma 2: No Multiplayer Confirmed by Director

In a recent rendezvous with Automaton, Hideaki Itsuno, the creative mind steering the Dragon's Dogma 2 ship, dropped a bombshell: the sequel is steering clear of multiplayer waters. No co-op escapades through the vast open world this time, folks! Itsuno's firm stance mirrors the solo-centric vibes from the original Dragon's Dogma and its snazzy Dark Arisen sibling.

Crafting Gameplay Magic: Itsuno's Rule of One

Itsuno, the maestro behind the magic, didn't mince words. Dragon's Dogma is about solo swagger, and multiplayer is not invited to this epic party. The philosophy? Cook up spicier gameplay than your grandma's secret chili recipe – unique, unconventional, and strictly offline. Itsuno's commitment to this gaming mantra remains unwavering, promising a solo experience that'll rock your Arisen socks off.

Sharing Pawns Adds Spice to the Mix

Hold up! No multiplayer doesn't mean you're riding solo. Dragon's Dogma 2 comes bearing gifts – Pawns, your trusty sidekicks, are here for a shareable fiesta. Friends, foes, and a global entourage can jump into your adventure. And here's the kicker – streamers can swipe your Pawns for their gaming shenanigans. Itsuno's grin is audible: "Imagine a famous streamer rocking my Pawns – that's a show I'd watch!"

Capcom's teaser move of dropping Dragon's Dogma 2's character creator ahead of the game's grand entrance suggests sharing Pawns will be the star of the solo show. Get ready for a ride where you're not alone, even when flying solo!
