Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen Switch 2 Update Currently In Development

For the third game they should go crazy with the subtitle. Something like... Dark Arisen. Neal Ronaghan: Dragon’s Dogma wasn’t a game most expected to get a sequel. The Capcom RPG came out in 2012, making its way to Switch in 2019, and was more or less an acquired taste. It’s a systems-heavy RPG built more around real-time combat, weird physics interactions, and a lot of persnickety character builds. Dragon’s Dogma 2 existing is a miracle, seemingly willed by dedicated developers within Capcom, and originally came out in 2024 on Xbox Series S/X and PlayStation 5. Two years later, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is coming to Switch 2 at the same time as the major “Dark Arisen” expansion. The Switch 2 release has the benefit of coming with the expansion as well as benefitting from a cadre of game updates in the past two years. I always meant to check out the sequel when it came out, but I never got around to it so this Switch 2 release has been a pleasant surprise. However, John Rairdin did play it initially. So John - what is so cool about Dragon’s Dogma 2? John Rairdin: What initially struck me about Dragon’s Dogma 2 back when it originally released, was how confident it was in ignoring the

If you don't care about GTA, you still have options For millions of gamers, November is all about one video game: Grand Theft Auto 6. Rockstar’s much-anticipated open-world crime game is likely to spark a cultural moment that we haven’t seen in games since Animal Crossing: New Horizons in 2020. While that’s exciting, it’s also bound to leave players who don’t care about GTA a little bored considering that so many developers have moved their games out of November entirely to avoid getting lost in the storm. The good news for anyone looking for some good GTA 6 counter-programming is that there are more games coming out next month. While it’s not as crowded a field as we typically get in November, there’s still sure to be something for you. Here’s a look at some of the highlights you can expect to play if you’re avoiding the streets of Vice City.

Catch it now for free on YouTube, as there’s no telling when it’ll be back Terminator 2: Judgment Day is the rare sequel where just about everybody likes it better than the original. That’s for good reason. The 1991 sci-fi action thriller redefined the blockbuster with a relentlessly exciting story, mind-blowing special effects, and the superstar presence of Arnold Schwarzenegger. The movie is so good it often outshines its predecessor, which also redefined the action thriller in the 1980s and is still exhilarating to watch for an entirely different reason than its sequel. Directed and co-written by James Cameron, The Terminator, which is currently free to stream on YouTube (with ads), is the story of two opposing time travelers from the year 2029 who venture back to the year 1984 to the city of Los Angeles. The first of these time travelers is a robot (Schwarzenegger) with living tissue over its body. Called a “Terminator,” the robot is a killing machine sent back to murder a woman named Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton).

Sometimes, the people who make movies don’t always get the credit they deserve. Carrie Fisher served as an uncredited script doctor on the 1998 Adam Sandler movie The Wedding Singer, and Quentin Tarantino did an uncredited rewrite of the Saturday Night Live sketch-turned-movie It’s Pat. This is more common with writers than directors, but it can happen to directors, too. For example, Richard Donner, who helmed the 1979 masterpiece Superman, shot a good deal of the sequel Superman II, but was fired partway through the movie. Richard Lester, who replaced him, received full credit. And while all the details about it still aren’t really known, there’s a certain 1982 horror film that many speculate was directed by someone other than the guy in the credits. Poltergeist, which is currently available to stream on HBO Max, follows an ordinary suburban family who begin to experience strange things in their home. Furniture and toys move on their own, a glass of milk shatters out of nowhere, and the youngest child in the family, five-year-old Carol Anne (Heather O'Rourke), begins to communicate with beings through the television.
