[QUOTE="Admin, post: 61547, member: 1"] During Capcom's special Dragon's Dogma 2 showcase yesterday, we not only learned the release date for the hotly anticipated sequel action role-playing game, but we also learned it will be the company's first $70 game. The PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam standard editions of the game are [URL='https://www.dragonsdogma.com/2/en-us/']all listed[/URL] at $70 USD, with the deluxe edition being priced at $80. Over the last three years, video game publishers and companies have slowly been adapting the [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/why-70-ps5-and-xbox-series-x-games-make-sensebut-the-timing-couldnt-be-worse']"Triple A" video price bump from $60 to $70[/URL]. Up until now, Capcom has abstained from selling games with this new price point with the release of titles like [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/street-fighter-6-review']Street Fighter 6[/URL]. Now, it's looking like the company will finally test the waters with the release of Dragon's Dogma 2 on March 26, 2024. This news comes months after Capcom president Haruhiro Tsujimoto revealed that he [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/capcom-president-thinks-game-prices-are-too-low']thought the price of video games were "too low"[/URL] while speaking at the Tokyo Game Show in September. During the event, Tsujimoto said increasing the price of games would be a “healthy option” for the industry. "Development costs are about 100 times higher than during the Famicom era, but software prices have not gone up that much,” Tsujimoto told Nikkei. "There is also a need to raise wages. Considering the fact that wages are rising in the industry as a whole, I think raising unit prices is a healthy option for business." Tsujimoto went on to argue that an economic slump wouldn't prevent people from purchasing pricier games: “Just because there’s a recession doesn’t mean you won’t go to the movie theater or go to your favorite artist’s concert. High-quality games will continue to sell,” he said. Dragon's Dogma 2 is the latest in a slew of games with a $70 price tag. Prior to Dragon's Dogma 2, Nintendo and Microsoft respectively released Starfield and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for a cool $70. Other $70 games released this year include titles like Forspoken, Dead Island 2, Hogwarts Legacy, and Wild Heart. Dragon's Dogma 2 is slated to release on March 26, 2024, on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and Steam. Isaiah Colbert is a freelance writer for IGN.
