Set in a huge open world, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen presents a rewarding action combat experience.

Players can share these Pawns online and reap rewards of treasure, tips and strategy hints for taking down the terrifying enemies. Pawns can also be borrowed when specific skills are needed to complete various challenging quests.

81/100
The PC port doesn't introduce much new and certain elements could be stronger, but Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen still shines as a uniquely enjoyable RPG.

9/10
Character customization, combat, and the weird story and brilliant end-game all make this one of my favorite action-RPG's of all time. Meanwhile, the Dark Arisen changes make the game somewhat more traversable and streamlined, turning a fun but frustrating game into something far more enjoyable. There's nothing really new here, but it's great to finally have the game on PC.

8/10
If anything, Dark Arisen reminds me just how much I missed my time with Dragon's Dogma, and how I'd love to see another one in the works. Here's hoping Gransys has more adventures for us in future!

Best action/crpg ever
I'm old crpg/arpg gamer(all important games from Baldur's/fallout time or elier). This is masterpiece. Best capcom game. They should do only another parts DD. Story is a little strange but finish is great and almost everything will be logic. Great, great GREAT!!!

Great Japanese action RPG
its a weird , and original world , slow story and action at first but late game is where this game gets really good , if you like something different than the usual (skyrim,souls)then try this , smaller open world game , with slow ,odd and yet good story telling ,especially late game . (this game is meant to be played through at least twice with same character, Hard+ mode :)) the pawn system is original and fun , i would love this as a co-op game ! (i read the GOG version does not have pawns from other players :( i hope this got fixed ,i am about to buy from GOG.) i just love the grappling system in combat , (like another capcom game "shadow of rome" ) (also reminds me of shadow of the colossus a little ) . the combat is fun for me , and diverse .so many different combat styles. dont forget to go to the wiki sight for the game , will help with allot of quests , if you have trouble. i own this game on xbox 360 , steam , and soon GOG. i have great love for this games originality . please Capcom we need a sequel , i dont want to play the MMO . i dont have enough time for mmo's.. please a sequel with CO-OP!!!! i love the people who made this game .. thank you for this game.

Time to kill that dragon >:(
I played this on the PS3 and have like 100 to 120 hours I think or more maybe 200 hours but fighting Chimera, Gorechimera, Cockatrice, Dragons, The Undead, Cyclops, Trolls, Golem and much more. Missions are alot of fun an some are boring as hell. The soundtrack is lovely and fit the battles while fighting. Companions A.K.A pawn hire 2 that are not you're class to have a team of 4 kill anything that come to kill you
