Highlights

  • Dragon's Dogma 2 character creator allows players to recreate favorite characters like Patches from FromSoftware games.
  • Capcom released character creation tools early to build excitement for the March 2024 release of the game.
  • Players can customize their Main Pawn's appearance and behavior, enhancing gameplay experience in Dragon's Dogma 2.

Dragon's Dogma 2 boasts a powerful character creator, and a FromSoftware fan used it to recreate Patches, a recurring character that most recently featured in Elden Ring. Though Dragon's Dogma 2 is slated to release on March 22, 2024, Capcom has released its character creation tools early to the players as a way to drum up excitement and allow them to have their Arisen and Main Pawn ready for launch. Much like its predecessor, Dragon's Dogma 2 will allow players to mold their Main Pawn into a unique companion with tailor-made behavior. Not only will the Main Pawn look the way players want, but they will also act the way players want.

This has caused many Dragon's Dogma fans to recreate their favorite fictional characters, both as Arisen, but also as Main Pawns – with the intent of playing through the game as those fictional characters. Much like Cid in Final Fantasy, FromSoftware games have used Patches as a recurring character in many different forms. He has made an appearance in the first and third Dark Souls games, as well as in Elden Ring. It's fair to say that this hairless trickster has left an impression on FromSoftware fans, so it was only a matter of time until he found his way into Dragon's Dogma 2.

As a result, the striking appearance of Patches was lovingly recreated as a Main Pawn in Dragon's Dogma 2 by Mogul162, hailing him as the most trustworthy pawn in the Rift on the Dragon's Dogma subreddit. While this certainly showcases how advanced the Dragon's Dogma 2 character creator is, Patches arguably wouldn't be complete without his trickster personality. Straightforward is the baseline inclination that Patches uses as a Dragon's Dogma 2 pawn, but players are hoping that they will be able to fine-tune it into something more cunning in-game.

Dragon's Dogma 2's Character Creator Is Already A Highlight

Ever since the character creation tools launched, players have been using them to recreate characters such as Link and Zelda in Dragon's Dogma 2. Not only has it made fans excited to play the final product, but it has also generated tremendous interest from the video game community at large. The character creator that Capcom built for Dragon's Dogma 2 takes inspiration from the first game, but many of its features have been improved, and the increased graphical fidelity has tied the whole concept together.

Much like the previous title, Dragon's Dogma 2 will feature numerous vocations, with the majority of them being exclusive to the Arisen. Having a good party composition and capitalizing on the weaknesses of enemies is the key to success in Dragon's Dogma 2, and Capcom's decision to create more unique vocations such as the Trickster has only further diversified combat in the sequel. If players end up enjoying the rest of the game as much as the character creator, Dragon's Dogma 2 could potentially find itself as one of the best games of 2024.
