Dragon’s Dogma 2 Achieves 3 Million Copies Sold

Capcom recently announced that their latest game, Dragon’s Dogma 2, has achieved a significant milestone by selling 3 million copies. This achievement comes just over two months after its release on March 22, 2024.

The Dragon’s Dogma 2 team expressed gratitude to the “3 million Arisen” who embarked on adventures in the game. They thanked the players for their continued support through a post on Twitter.

Strong Sales Despite Early Challenges

In early April, Capcom had already announced that Dragon’s Dogma 2 had sold 2.5 million units. This rapid sales pace indicates strong market reception despite initial concerns over microtransactions and performance issues. Some players criticized the game’s use of microtransactions and noted performance flaws, but these issues did not significantly impact overall sales.

Financial Impact

Dragon’s Dogma 2’s success had a notable impact on Capcom’s financial outlook. The combined revenue from this game and the latest Street Fighter installment led Capcom to raise its earnings forecast. The company increased its net income forecast from 40 to 43.3 million yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 is currently available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Despite some early criticism, the game’s strong sales performance suggests it will continue to do well in the market. The Dragon’s Dogma series, which began in May 2012, recently celebrated another anniversary, and the developers took the opportunity to thank players for their ongoing support.
