Capcom has hit the jackpot with Dragon’s Dogma 2, reaching an astonishing 2.5 million sales across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S within 10 days of its release. Launched on March 22, the action-packed RPG’s rapid sales growth by April 2 has propelled the entire Dragon’s Dogma series past the 10 million sales mark, a significant milestone for Capcom.
This remarkable achievement sets Dragon’s Dogma 2 apart, especially when compared to its predecessor, which took a month to sell 1.05 million units after its release in May 2012. Capcom’s strategic promotional efforts aimed at both series veterans and newcomers, including a free app for creating player avatars and celebrity collaborations, played a key role in this success.
Despite debates over microtransactions and performance issues on PC, Dragon’s Dogma 2 has become the biggest launch for a single-player game on Steam under Capcom’s banner, boasting over 220k peak concurrent players. Following this launch success, Capcom is considering further expansions, signalling potential DLC on the horizon.
