Capcom and (depending on the region) respective publishers such as THQ in Australia have confirmed that the previous announced demo release of their forthcoming open world action RPG Dragon’s Dogma will be available for digital download globally via the XBox Live Marketplace and Playstation Network stores from Wednesday, 25th April 2012.
With your party of three Pawns, the demo allows you to experience the different styles of two of the game’s character classes in two challenging encounters. A melee specialist skilled in both attacks and counterattacks, as the Fighter you will make your way through underground tunnels and chambers before taking on the deadly Chimera in a Prologue quest, set before the events of the main game. Swift and nimble, the Strider’s weapons of choice are bow and daggers, use them well if you are to defeat the mighty Griffin in the open plains surrounding the capital of Gransys.
This will provide you with the opportunity to run wild with and design your playable character and main pawn using the games character creation tools before you take on the Griffin. Purchasers of Dragon’s Dogma will be able to export both these characters into the full game upon release.
Dragon’s Dogma is scheduled for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 from the 24th May 2012.
