It’s a stellar day for an RPG sales update: Dragon’s Dogma 2 has soared past 2.5 million copies sold, while the stellar Unicorn Overlord has sold 500,000 copies worldwide since launch.
Capcomjust revealed that, since launching just over a week ago, Dragon’s Dogma 2 has sold 2.5 million copies worldwide on all platforms. In fact, this has brought the series' sales total to over 10 million, after the original Dragon’s Dogma sold around 7.9 million copies.

Both new RPGs have managed to amass a dedicated audience in a really short amount of time, which is impressive for both games, considering strategy RPGs are something of a niche, and the original Dragon’s Dogma launched well over a decade ago in 2012. Even developers have been urging audiences to play the new games -Final Fantasy Tactics' director has championed Unicorn Overlord, for one.
Capcom might already be looking to the future for its new game -a Dragon’s Dogma 2 survey just asked players how much they’d pay for DLC. Users could select between $10 and $50 for the DLC, which indicates that the DLC, if it does materialize, could be far bigger than just some simple new items.
