CapcomDragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is a vast game that will take many hours to complete, but do you need to play the first game to know what\u2019s going on? Now that Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 has finally hit the shelves, a bunch of players would be keen to jump straight in. While the first game was a success, the second game is already arguably much bigger in terms of hype and seems set to be the game that truly cements the franchise as one of gaming\u2019s biggest fantasy RPGs. But as Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is a sequel to the original game, there will be many players who\u2019ll be tempted to play through that before they delve into the highly anticipated sequel. The question is, do you really need to play Dragon\u2019s Dogma before you play Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2? Do I need to play Dragon\u2019s Dogma 1 first? No, you don\u2019t need to play Dragon\u2019s Dogma 1 to understand Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2. In many ways, Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 is a reboot of sorts as well as a sequel. The game is set in a parallel world to the original where a similar set of events play out. Like the first game, players control an \u201cArisen\u201d a hero chosen by fate, and an ancient prophecy, to venture forth on a quest, slay a dragon, and assume the throne. This is exactly what happened in the first game, and Dragon\u2019s Dogma 2 follows a similar path.
