Dragon’s Dogma 2 has a cat-person playing the role of a stoic monarch, and I love it.
Capcom’s action-RPG might lean hard into dark fantasy, but it’s still got some more pleasant surprises. Chief among them might just be Nadenia, the character you can see below, a newcomer to Dragon’s Dogma 2. Don’t let looks deceive you - this cat-person apparently rules an entire kingdom.
According to the text above, Nadenia became the ruler of an entire nation at a pretty young age, so it sure sounds like she’s got the weight of the world on her soldiers. The nation, which is apparently called ‘Batal,’ has a people that quickly came to adore their young monarch.
Nadenia is, if you’re unfamiliar, from a brand new race of characters in Dragon’s Dogma 2. They’re called Beastran, which is a little on the nose from Capcom, admittedly, but sure does capture their image. The cat-like people sure do bring back memories of The Elder Scrolls' Khajiit.
If I know anything about online fandoms, I’d put good money on Nadenia quickly becoming an adored character by the Dragon’s Dogma 2 fanbase. Aids to the player character in dark fantasy games are nearly always popular characters (just look at Bloodborne’s doll for example), and a young monarch who’s risen above everything to become loved by a nation makes for a lovely story.
Dragon’s Dogma 2 finally launches next year on March 22, exclusively forPS5andXbox Series X/S new-gen consoles, and PC. You can read up on our fullDragon’s Dogma 2 previewfor our hands-on experience with the new action-RPG.
