Fans have waited over a decade to get their hands on Dragon’s Dogma 2, so it’s no surprise that many are squeezing every little drop of action out of the game as possible. That’s where the side missions really help, as they allow you to take on tasks and stories that are not crucial to the main quest line.

If you want to see how many missions you have left, or just make sure you don’t miss any, we’ve listed every main quest and side mission in Dragon’s Dogma 2.

Every main story mission in Dragon’s Dogma 2

There are 18 quests in total that you must complete to finish Dragon’s Dogma 2. Every other quest in the game is optional, but you’ll be rewarded for taking the time to complete them, so it’s well worth the time investment.

Everyone starts Dragon’s Dogma 2 in the same spot, within the mines, and you must complete the Goaled Awakening mission before anything else. Next, you head to the mainland and begin Tale’s Beginning, but from here, you’re able to take side missions to complete alongside the main story.

For those looking to speed through the game, here are all the missions you must complete:

How long does it take to complete Dragon’s Dogma 2‘s main storyline?

Dragon’s Dogma 2 will take between 30 and 25 hours to complete, should you focus only on the main storyline.

Adding side quests will make this much longer, with suggestions that it could take over 100 hours to achieve 100 percent completion, which may require you to head into New Game Plus and replay the storyline again.
