All they have to do is show around 10-ish minutes straight or more of Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen gameplay and features, all while the game is running at a smooth framerate and looking optimized, and this showcase will be a win in my book.

I'm keeping my word, this show was a win. I won't give it a grade due to everything else, but it was a win.

• MH Stories 3 DLC: Rudy Side Story & Royal Monsters (Hard mode)
• Kento Kinoshita now DD2 director
• DD2 12 new dungeons in main game
• More character editor options in DD2
• New onboarding experience for DD2
• Addressing player criticisms for DD2 with new updates/patches
• Additional save slots
• More updates to come for DD2
• Yasmine SF6 explanation
• New Onimusha Gameplay

Overall yes. DD2 is getting the facelift it deserves to put it more in line with DDDA. I have full faith Kinoshita will do right by Dogma fans.

Overview Trailer(probably same stuff in spotlight). Will be analyzing later to find any secrets within the footage.

Anything new about enemy scaling or higher difficulty for dd2?

 

[Skifi28]

That was mostly a nothingburger.

Since they have more planned in the future, the current answer is 'not yet' instead of 'no'

This is a must, I really hope they implement that. I don't want to start fresh with a new character, but also dont want to kill everything just by looking at them lol.

Probably saving that juicy tidbit for a future announcement. There's no way Kinoshita isn't aware of us wanting more difficulty given it was one of the earliest complaints about the game.

Yep, welcome to the Capcom Spotlight. They usually host this show during Summer Games Fest Week, but they oddly delayed it this year.

And every year it tends to feel like them explaining an email or twitter update. Nearly every year myself and others rate it as one of the lowest showcases.

I also feel like that's why Square Enix completely stopped doing this.

Edit: Whenever I think of the real old E3 and not what people have painted it as lately with nostalgia goggles, I point to the Capcom spotlight and say 'now imagine this on a stage, almost yearly'

So Onimusha's premium deluxe edition includes costumes for 2 different female characters. Are they hinting at multple playable characters in the campaign? Or maybe that will be for some kind of bonus mode that hasn't been revealed yet?

World of Biohazard 30th anniversary exhibition!
Tickets by lottery system. Gahhh.
Every damn time Japan. Damn your completely fair system. In the western world we can just buy our way into anything via extortionate ticket prices.

If they do I hope they don't do same way they did with Kaede in original Onimusha. Because when you do play as her in original game you have zero reason to fight any enemy which makes her section boring.
