Dragon’s Dogma 2 is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 later this year alongside the launch of its Dark arose expansion, and Capcom has made major improvements to the base game in the works.
Speaking in an interview with Eurogamer about the process of porting the fantasy role-playing game (RPG) to Switch 2, producer Naoto Oyama said that Capcom’s RE Engine “was actually a really good fit for the Nintendo Switch 2.”
He explained that the team was able to use their knowledge from previous Switch 2 ports, such as Pragmats And Resident Evil Requiemand improvements to the RE engine to create a solid port for The Dogma of the Dragon.
“Because this is an internal problem [Capcom-owned] engine, we’ve been able to accumulate knowledge and know-how from other teams,” Oyama said. “And that means that the improvements made to the engine with each title, and the different features added with new games, stay with us – and we can benefit from them on future titles. It’s a really positive cycle for us.”
The producer confirmed that the team is also working on improving the game’s overall performance, not only on Switch 2, but also on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S launch platforms.
“In particular, we tried to find as many small tweaks as possible so that we can significantly improve performance on consoles when it comes to Performance mode itself,” he said, adding that this will be a feature in the August title update, allowing the game to reach 60 FPS in Performance mode on console.
Oyama continued, confirming that the game can reach 30 FPS on Switch 2 and “even higher” during many scenes.
“This means that, proportionately, all the effort we put into the PS5 and Xbox Series
“So there’s a little time left before the game releases, but it’s exceeding our expectations on Switch 2, and I hope players will agree that we’ve once again done a great job bringing this game to that platform.”
Dragon’s Dogma 2: Darkness Riseswhich introduces a new region, Norgan, new armor, weapons, dungeons and more, launches on October 9.
