Dragons Dogma 2 | GameTrader.SG

Capcom’s June 2026 Spotlight wrapped up today with three concrete updates for games already on Singapore fans’ radar—a major expansion landing on a new platform, a September release date finally locked in, and a surprise DLC for one of the year’s best JRPGs. Here’s everything confirmed in the showcase.

Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen Comes to Nintendo Switch 2 on 9 October

The biggest announcement of the showcase: Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is arriving on 9 October 2026 across PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S—and for the first time, Nintendo Switch 2. The expansion introduces the new region of Norgan, new weapons and skills, and twelve Lost Rites dungeon challenges designed to test even veteran Arisen.

Pricing for the expansion standalone is USD 29.99; a bundle with the base game is USD 49.99. Switch 2 players get the best deal: the base Dragon’s Dogma 2 launches on the platform at the same time, and Dark Arisen content is included from day one—meaning Switch 2 owners effectively get the complete package at the standard software price. Singapore players can pick it up via the Nintendo eShop or PlayStation Store digital, or watch for a physical release through retailers.

Dark Arisen’s arrival on Switch 2 is notable: it means the full Dragon’s Dogma 2 experience—open world, expanded story, dungeon content—is playable portably for the first time. For Singapore Switch 2 owners who have been eyeing the game since its PS5/PC launch, October is now firmly on the calendar. Check Dragon’s Dogma 2 on Steam and the PlayStation Store SG for local pricing closer to launch.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword Gets a 25 September Release Date

After months of teases, Onimusha: Way of the Sword now has a firm date: 25 September 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The Spotlight showcased new gameplay footage highlighting three signature mechanics: the Issen precision counterattack system, a soul absorption loop tied to enemy kills, and Oni Agility—a movement option that changes how you close distance and evade.

The game casts players as Miyamoto Musashi in an Edo-era Kyoto twisted by an encroaching force of Malice, with rival Sasaki Ganryu appearing as an early confrontation. A demo has been available since 3 June on both PS5 and Steam, so if you haven’t tried it yet, that’s worth a download before the clock ticks down to September. No Nintendo Switch version was announced; this is a current-gen title only.

Singapore fans of the original Onimusha trilogy will feel the DNA here—this is an unambiguous revival of that sengoku action-horror style, now rebuilt for current hardware. Grab the demo on Steam or the PlayStation Store SG to get a taste ahead of the September launch.

Monster Hunter Stories 3 Gets a Rudy Side Story DLC

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, which launched earlier this year, is getting its first major DLC: the Additional Side Story: Rudy, arriving Autumn 2026. As the name suggests, this chapter shifts the spotlight to Rudy—the player’s Azurian Royal Palico companion—who heads off on an independent investigation involving Egg Quartz and new aerial locations. It’s a lore-focused addition that expands on Rudy’s heritage in ways the base game only hinted at.

The Rudy Side Story is included in the Deluxe Edition (USD 89.99) and Premium Deluxe Edition of the game, with separate purchase availability to be confirmed. If you bought the base edition and have been enjoying the game, keep an eye on an upcoming announcement about standalone pricing.

For Singapore players who want to catch up, Monster Hunter Stories 3 is available now on Steam and consoles. The Game News category has more on the broader summer release slate from major publishers.

What to Watch Next

All three games are either out or arriving this calendar year. The October 9 Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen date puts it in a busy Q4 window alongside other major releases, so plan accordingly if your backlog is already stretched. Onimusha in September gives the action crowd something to look forward to after the summer, and the MH Stories 3 DLC should slot in neatly once Capcom announces its standalone price. Keep the Onimusha Steam page and Capcom’s official site in your bookmarks for the latest.

What Is Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen?

If you missed Dragon’s Dogma 2 when it launched on PS5 and PC in 2024, the short pitch is that Capcom built one of the most reactive open-world action RPGs in years — a game where your party of Pawns actually adapts to what you do, where creature encounters feel weighty rather than scripted, and where exploration rewards curiosity at every turn. Switch 2 owners will get all of that in one box.

The new Dark Arisen expansion adds the Norgan region, a harsh, snow-covered landscape that brings fresh enemy types and environmental challenges distinct from the base game’s varied biomes. Two major systems debut alongside it:

Appraisal Mechanic — Players discover mysterious items in the world and bring them to appraisers to unlock new weapons, armour, and skills. It adds a loop of discovery and anticipation that dovetails neatly with Dragon’s Dogma 2’s existing loot systems.

Relic Expedition Cycle — A new recurring activity that gives veteran players ongoing reasons to revisit the world alongside the expansion’s story content.

Capcom also noted that Title Update 1 is available now for existing owners on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC — an early taste of improvements landing ahead of the expansion’s October release.

Platforms and Pricing

Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen launches across all platforms on 9 October 2026:

Nintendo Switch 2 — US$49.99 bundle (base game + Dark Arisen expansion included)

PS5 / Xbox Series X|S / PC (Steam) — US$29.99 for the Dark Arisen DLC if you already own the base game

Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 version are open now. SGD pricing has not been confirmed at time of writing — check the Nintendo eShop SG or your local retailer for local pricing closer to launch.

What This Means for Singapore Players

Dragon’s Dogma 2 sat at or near the top of many best-of-2024 lists among RPG players here, but its heavy hardware demands meant it was very much a PS5-or-PC proposition for local fans. The Switch 2 port changes that equation entirely — and at US$49.99 for the full package including Dark Arisen, it is arguably the best value way to experience Capcom’s open-world RPG for the first time.

For Singapore players who already own the game on PS5 or PC, the Dark Arisen DLC adds a meaningful new chapter rather than cosmetic extras, making it worth the return trip. The Norgan expansion in particular looks like Capcom taking the world in a genuinely new direction.

Last words

October 9 is a few months away, but this is one to put on your radar now. Dragon’s Dogma 2 already earned its reputation as one of the standout action RPGs of recent years, and Dark Arisen looks like a worthy expansion rather than a retread. For Switch 2 owners in Singapore, it may well be the biggest RPG release of the platform’s second half of 2026.
