On the first day of the “Capcom Highlights” presentation broadcast last night, the Japanese publisher shared new information on two of its spectacularly action-packed titles with radically different fantasy universes scheduled for this year. The developers took the opportunity to detail the character creation and storage tool for Dragon’s Dogma™ 2.
Using this tool, players can now begin designing their Insurgent (whom they will embody) and Main Pawn (machine-controlled companion) for Dragon’s Dogma 2, both of which will be transferable to the full game when it arrives on March 22, 2024.
The show also featured a preview of Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess™, delivering new details on the Japanese medieval-fantasy-inspired action/strategy game ahead of its release this year.

Create your character in Dragon’s Dogma 2 today
Dragon’s Dogma 2 Director Hideaki Itsuno and Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi took to the stage on the first day of Capcom Highlights to give players a glimpse of what to expect when Dragon’s Dogma 2 launches. Accompanied by their group of up to three machine-controlled companions called Pawns, players are encouraged to give free rein to their curiosity and creativity as they explore the game’s vast world.
From the way they solve quests to the way they interact with the characters around them, the decisions players make will not only have an impact on relationships with other characters, but will also alter the interactions between characters. There are often creative solutions to avoid physical altercations, such as passing off a perfectly made counterfeit item as the genuine article. Every decision taken by the player will have an impact on the complex web of relationships in a world populated by over 1,000 characters, each with their own objectives and motivations.
The team also unveiled the “Character Creation & Storage” tool, which is now available for free download on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam). This tool allows players to create five designs for their Insurgent and Main Pawn! These designs will be instantly transferred to the full game when Dragon’s Dogma 2 is released on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) on March 22, 2024, so players can begin their journey right from launch.

Finally, the duo at the helm of the project revealed their intention to publish official support counters proposed by renowned content creators, which will be available for other players to join in their own adventures. The first names were announced at Capcom Highlights, with more to come in the near future.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 is an Action-RPG scheduled for PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) on March 22, 2024.
Enter the realm of the spirits with Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess
Gamers will soon be able to explore an enchanting world steeped in Japanese culture and mysticism with the upcoming release of Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, scheduled for launch later this year. This single-player action-strategy game is a brand-new creation from Capcom that will test players’ strategic skills and dexterity.
Set in a mountain infected by corruption, players will embody Soh, the hero charged with saving the villagers and purifying their villages on Mount Kafuku, in the company of the Miko Yoshiro. As they traverse Mount Kafuku, players will be immersed in dynamic cycles of day and night. By day, Soh will join the villagers in preparing for the battle ahead. When darkness arrives, Soh, the villagers and Yoshiro will face the Great Ikoku, even more powerful enemies imbued with the power of the stolen masks. Players will need to harness the power of the Tsuba, wield dancing sword techniques, adapt to ever-changing combat conditions and take advantage of the villagers’ different roles in order to purify the mountain.
Some examples of possible villager roles:
- Lumberjacks – Robust villagers who excel in close combat.
- Archers – Precise villagers who fight from a distance with bows and arrows.
- Ascetics – Villagers who use spells to contain Ikoku.
Powered by Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE, Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess will be available from launch on Xbox Game Pass for console and PC, as well as on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam and Windows store). More details to follow on this unforgettable confrontation full of strategic challenges, supported by a highly distinctive aesthetic.
