Start the Dragon’s Dogma 2 Dark Arisen expansion
Dragon’s Dogma 2 has delivered a chilling new chapter with the Dark Arisen expansion, plunging players into the desolate beauty of Norgan—a northern, wintery realm long abandoned by civilized folk and teeming with forgotten monsters and deep mysteries.
To unlock this frosty new territory, players must first find their way to the gateway. The adventure begins by speaking with Captain Brant in The Stardrop Inn in Vernworth after nightfall. This interaction serves as the official invitation to explore the untamed lands of Norgan, offering the player two distinct paths for their journey.
One path leads to the Chilling Tidings quest, which sets sail into Norgan to uncover the secrets of the new region. The other path, Lost Rites, invites players to delve into the uncovered ruins, challenging them to conquer twelve brand-new endgame dungeons that await.
Whether you seek to explore the vast wilderness or conquer the ruins, the expansion is designed to be a substantial addition to the game. While the adventure can be started earlier, the developers recommend reaching level 40 for the most rewarding experience, as the difficulty of the new dungeons varies significantly.
For those who have already reached the expansive Unmoored World, accessing the Dark Arisen DLC requires a specific gatekeeper: New Game+ mode. This mechanic allows players to start a fresh playthrough while retaining their level, equipment, and items, though quest progress and quest items are reset.
This New Game+ system ensures that players can revisit the world and tackle the challenging new content at their preferred level, making the introduction to Norgan a rewarding experience for seasoned adventurers ready for a deeper, more mysterious challenge.
