CAPCOM has announced that the Dragon's Dogma 2 Deluxe Edition and several DLCs won't be available for purchase anymore starting on June 25, 2026, 12:00 AM (UTC). Moreover, the base game will receive a permanent discount, though the publisher didn't say how much.
As you might remember, there was a bit of a controversy at launch, as some of these premium items were perceived to be "pay to win", especially those that could be used to revive characters. Granted, all of them could also be acquired through regular gameplay, but that did not prevent CAPCOM from receiving a hefty dose of criticism.
Here's the full list of digital items that will be removed from purchase:
- Dragon's Dogma 2 Deluxe Edition
- A Boon for Adventurers - New Journey Pack
- Harpysnare Smoke Beacons - Harpy Lure Item
- Heartfelt Pendant - A Thoughtful Gift
- Ambivalent Rift Incense - Change Pawn Inclinations
- Makeshift Gaol Key - Escape from Gaol
- Art of Metamorphosis - Character Editor
- Portcrystal - Warp Location Marker
- Wakestone - Restore the Dead to Life
- 500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
- 1500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
- 2500 Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
These items, on the other hand, will remain available:
- Dragon's Dogma 2
- Explorer's Camping Kit - Camping Gear
- Dragon's Dogma Music & Sound Collection - Custom Sounds
The camping gear is pretty self-explanatory. As for the music DLC (priced at $2.99), it replaces some in-game music and sound effects with those from the original Dragon's Dogma.
Of course, this is all done in preparation for Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, due on October 9 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and X, and Nintendo Switch 2. CAPCOM has already released a free quality-of-life update, with another set to drop sometime in August.
