Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Dragon's Dogma 2 will be CAPCOM's first $70 game, but it may not be its last, judging from what the company said recently. During the Q&A session of the publisher's Q3 FY2023 financial results conference call, CAPCOM was asked about the pricing policy for the next fiscal year. The second entry in the series created by Hideaki Itsuno will be the publisher's first $70 game, but it may not be the last, as industry-wide development costs are increasing, and a price review is being considered as one of the options to offset these costs. Ultimately, the publisher aims to take […]
Dragon's Dogma 2, the second entry in the series launching in a little over a month on PC and consoles, will release with an uncapped framerate. Game director Hideaki Itsuno himself confirmed the news on X/Twitter, not adding much else on the matter. While it could only be the PC version that features uncapped framerate, there's the chance this will also be the case for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game, as he liked a reply asking about consoles. On consoles too? — Wojciech Gruszczyk (@only4izi) February 13, 2024 Today's reveal from the Dragon's Dogma […]
Dragon's Dogma 2 is highly likely not going to target 30 frames per second gameplay on consoles, a recent analysis of the game's latest trailer suggests. The analysis conducted by OSK Gaming following the launch of another video by The Rift, is based, as already mentioned, on the latest trailer shown during last week's State of Play and suggests how, while the game may not run at solid 60 frames per second all the time, it is most definitely not targeting 30 frames per second as is being rumored. Given how all RE Engine-powered titles released on PlayStation 5 and […]
During PlayStation's State of Play event yesterday, Capcom debuted a new action-packed Dragon's Dogma 2 combat trailer. The new nearly two-minute-long action trailer focuses on the game's combat, and shows the new Warfarer Vocation gameplay. This new character class can be used exclusively by the Arisen, and learn different skills from each Vocation. "By using diverse weapons, the Warfarer can respond to any situation and create combos that cross Vocational boundaries" Capcom writes in its official press release that came with the new trailer. "The Warfarer’s lower base stats require them to utilize the situational strengths of different weapon types […]
2023 was one of the best years for roleplaying games in living memory, thanks to the release of some absolute bangers, but 2024 has the potential to overshadow it by a mile, as the next 12 months will see the launch of some highly anticipated titles. Whether it's remakes, long-anticipated sequels, spiritual successors, or new IPs, 2024 truly seems to have a little bit of everything for those who always need a roleplaying game in their lives. Here are our most anticipated RPGs releasing this year. Previously in Wccftech's most anticipated games of 2024: Action Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth (February […]
As part of the monthly IGN First game overview, CAPCOM has released new Dragon's Dogma 2 gameplay footage centered on the Trickster class (or vocation, as they are called in this franchise). The Trickster was briefly shown in a previous video, but this is a much longer dive into the class. First of all, here's the official description from the Dragon's Dogma 2 website: A vocation exclusive to the Arisen, the Trickster can conjure illusions through the smoke created by its unique weapon, the Censer. Tricksters can use illusions to deceive enemies into fighting against their own. They also have […]
During the CES 2024 'Special Address' livestream, NVIDIA announced several new DLSS 3/RTX games that are on the way. First and foremost, the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition PC release will support DLSS 3 with Frame Generation and DLAA. The PlayStation 5 launch of the base game with the Burning Shores DLC took place on October 6. Sony still hasn't shared a definitive release date for the PC port, although we can expect it in early 2024. Nixxes is handling this version, so we're hopeful it will be well-optimized. Dragon's Dogma II is apparently getting DLSS 3, too. That's […]
With Dragon's Dogma 2 now less than three months away from launch, it is no big surprise that CAPCOM is considerably ramping up the marketing. A few hours ago, IGN posted over 18 minutes of exclusive new gameplay on YouTube, showing off the Fighter, Thief, Warrior, and Sorcerer vocations (the game's term for classes). It's another chance to take a look at the upcoming action RPG, now rendered in gorgeous RE Engine graphics. Dragon's Dogma 2 will, in fact, be the first open world game made with the RE Engine, stretching its capabilities in this regard. Just like previous RE […]
Dragon's Dogma 2 is less than three months away from being released. Just a year and a half ago, this remained a pipe dream for fans of the original action RPG, as ten years had passed without a sequel. Then the June 2022 announcement came and they could finally rejoice. In a new interview published in the latest issue of PLAY magazine, Dragon's Dogma 2 director Hideaki Itsuno apologized to fans for the long wait and assured that, if it had been up to him, he'd have done a sequel right away. I really wanted to be able to make […]
Earlier this morning, Capcom let slip the release date for the aniticipated Dragon’s Dogma 2, and now they’ve served up a new showcase featuring a meaty chunk of new gameplay. The Dragon’s Dogma 2 Showcase offers up new story details, as well as a look at the game's Trickster vocation, Shadow-of-the-Colossus-style bosses, and more. You can check it all out below, provided you have around 15 minutes to spare. Dragon’s Dogma 2 features a similar setup to the original game, with players taking on the role of the Arisen who’s had their heart stolen by the Dragon. That said, Capcom […]
Dragon's Dogma 2, the second entry in the series by CAPCOM, will be released in late March, the game's Steam store page confirmed today. As previously rumored, the open-world action role-playing game directed by Hideaki Itsuno will launch worldwide on March 22nd. As it seems like this will be a global release on Steam, there's a good chance the game will be available one day earlier in the United States. The Dragon's Dogma 2 Steam store page also revealed the game's system requirements, which are slightly average than usual, which is not surprising as the game is not a cross-gen […]
Following the 18 rating received earlier this week in Saudi Arabia, Dragon's Dogma 2 has been rated by the European equivalent, PEGI (Pan European Game Information). The rating is the same (18). It comes with warnings of violence and in-game purchases, with the latter suggesting there will be some form of microtransactions. More importantly, though, the PEGI website has listed the release date of Dragon's Dogma 2. According to the listing, the hotly anticipated action RPG sequel will be available starting on Friday, March 22, 2024. This doesn't really feel like a placeholder date, so we may have a proper […]
