There is only a month left till we finally see Dragon’s Dogma 2 arrive on our consoles or PCs, and now, thanks to a recent teaser from games director Hideaki Itsuno, there could be a major feature coming to the game that could change the future of the genre and potentially gaming itself.
For many gamers, this feature may not be as important as a well-balanced combat system, a detailed story, perfectly rendered characters, or other features, but for many gamers, this is something that could completely change how a game acts and feels, and that is the frame rate at which the game can be played.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 Will Be Bringing an Uncapped Frame Rate to All Platforms According to a Recent Tweet.
According to a recent tweet from game director Hideaki Istuno, players should be looking forward to an uncapped frame rate on Dragon’s Dogma 2. This is quite a big announcement, as there have been a few issues over the past few years with new games utilizing high frame rates, which are usually capped at 30FPS.

Especially for games that are released to consoles, even though they have been boasted to handle a 60FPS rate, there have been many games released over the years that don’t utilize this feature on consoles and tend to cap the games at a lower frame rate to ensure quality.
Because of this history, gamers were pleasantly surprised that Dragon’s Dogma 2 will be released with an uncapped frame rate, as usually, this sort of feature would only be available to those who own a high-end PC, but if this tweet is to be believed, we will all be getting a very nice surprise upon the game’s release.
Since this statement doesn’t include any specific reference to any platform in particular, we can only assume that it is aimed at all platforms rather than just PCs. But if rumors and leaks are to be believed, this could just be an error on Hideaki Itsuno’s part, and we could just be receiving this feature on PCs, leaving consoles high and dry.
Capcom has recently Had a Good Track Record When It Comes to Utilising These Console Features, so It Is Safe to Say, This Could Be True
If you aren’t familiar with Capcom, it is the developer behind games like Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, Dragon’s Dogma, and so much more. Recently, Capcom has been on a hot streak, releasing some of the best games of the generation with fantastic graphics, frame rates, and stories that have players begging for more.
Since the release of current-generation consoles, Capcom has been repeatedly releasing brand-new games to each of these franchises, which have managed to run at 4K and 60FPS, which gives us a lot of hope that this announcement is true and will be applicable to each platform and not just PC.
