Capcom’s Dragon’s Dogma 2 official X page announced the release of the game’s new title update, introducing more upgrades to storage, settings, bug fixes, and more. The post further mentioned that the updates were available across all platforms.

However, the gaming community had mixed reactions to this latest patch. Some suggested it was “a little too late” and that they had moved on to other games. On the other hand, many were happy about the updates and anticipated future fixes and a full performance upgrade.
Dragon’s Dogma 2, an action RPG set out in March 2024, ranked as one of the year’s top-selling games, alongside Helldivers 2 and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. The reception led to Dragon’s Dogma 2 selling over 3 million copies globally, entering Capcom’s platinum titles.
Storage takes top priority in the latest update
Capcom pointed out that players could equip armor and sell items from the storage menu. On the other hand, this update also applies if the player wants to equip the armor when changing vocations in any vocation guild.
The updates increased the maximum number of one type of item stored in the storage from 99 to 999. A similar update from the previous patch was the increased number of maximum items in storage from 1000 to 3000.
Other updates included fixing the bug that allowed players to access places they weren’t supposed to, making it easier to locate oxcarts, reducing CPU overload, correcting NPC portraits, fixing hair display for characters at maximum height, making previously unattainable items accessible, fixing incorrect pricing of precious stones in Vermund, bug fixes, and more.
A new update for Dragon's Dogma 2 is available now on all platforms. It includes additions and adjustments to the storage, as well as fixes to various issues.https://t.co/waEdG0ntSv
