Dragon’s Dogma 2 will allow for an immersive journey for you as the Arisen and your Pawns. In the sequel, you clash furiously with writhing monsters, face steep challenges, and face the dangers of Lestania head-on, all while developing your Vocation.

After loving it ourselves, it’s no wonder the gaming community is excited about Dragon’s Dogma 2—particularly those on Xbox Game Pass. It would be a huge win for the massive RPG title to be free as part of Game Pass, so let’s see if the dragon has that dog in it.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 will not be available to play on Xbox Game Pass on day one.

There has been no formal announcement about bringing the game to the subscription service, and right now, you can pre-order it on Xbox’s shop for $69—without the option to play for free on Xbox Game Pass.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 is now available on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S

It feels like a missed opportunity for one of 2024’s biggest games, but rest assured, this doesn’t mean everything is over. There is a possibility Dragon’s Dogma 2 will join the Xbox Game Pass library in the future as other Capcom titles have been added, such as Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Monster Hunter Rise, and Devil May Cry 5.

It’s a major release for Capcom, which would explain why it won’t be on Xbox Game Pass on day one, though the company is currently working on Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, which will land on Xbox Game Pass as soon as it is released. This indicates both companies may experiment with bringing more games on day one to Xbox Game Pass in the future.

For now, if you’re paying full price for Dragon’s Dogma 2, be sure to check out all Vocations in the sprawling RPG and browse the 10 best Dragon’s Dogma 2 character creations.
