Dragon's Dogma 2 publisher Capcom released the role-playing game's character creator two weeks before the full game launches and players are using it to recreate characters from the likes of Dune, Cyberpunk 2077, Game of Thrones, Elden Ring, God of War, and more.
The incredibly intricate character creator has already been used to create some absolute monsters but, with some more time to spend with it over the weekend, players have seemingly mastered the tools to create iconic characters from other franchises.
This even includes the live-action TV show Game of Thrones, as the aptly named Reddit user CharacterCreationArt uploaded their take on Daenerys Targaryen, which looks practically identical to the real-life actress Emilia Clarke's rendition of the character. The same can be said for Dune: Part 2 character Paul Atreides, played by Timothée Chalamet, which was created by SmittenHeart on X/Twitter (below).
Pulling characters from elsewhere in video games, Mezuka shared their Panam Palmer from Cyberpunk 2077, Mogul162 shared their Patches from Elden Ring and Dark Souls, and DaftPower shared their Kratos from God of War.
Players have also recreated Link from The Legend of Zelda, a Dunmer from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, Leon S. Kennedy from Resident Evil 4, Nick Fury from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Danny Trejo's Machete, all of which can be viewed in the slideshow above.
Some more interpretive takes include the adoring fan from The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, Scar from The Lion King, and Nigel Thornberry from The Wild Thornberrys — though even these, somehow, are incredibly accurate.
Coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC via Steam, Dragon's Dogma 2 takes place in a parallel universe which "mirrors the world setting of the original game". Players can explore the human kingdom of Vermund and the beastren kingdom of Battahl and ultimately take on a big evil dragon.
The myriard non-player characters of Dragon's Dogma 2 also appear endlessly complex, as beyond some pawns being completely customisable as mentioned above, NPCs can form different bonds with the player character and may even fight each other for the player's love.
