Dragon’s Dogma 2 – How To Get The True Ending
There are plenty of secrets in Dragon’s Dogma 2. However, there’s one that’s truly mind-blowing, and we suggest getting to that part once you’ve experienced most of what the game offers during your initial playthrough. Here’s our guide on how to unlock the true ending in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Likewise, please be reminded that this article contains major spoilers.
How to get the true ending in Dragon’s Dogma 2
The Dragon’s Dogma 2 true ending can be unlocked at the conclusion of the Legacy main quest. You need to stab the Dragon with the Empowered Godsbane Blade, the unique weapon given to you by Ambrosius once you’ve collected enough Wyrmslife Crystals.
We cannot stress this enough: Before you go running off to unlock the true ending in Dragon’s Dogma 2, you should first tackle most of the side objectives in the game world. Increase your level, acquire powerful loot, complete quests, unlock vocations, and so on.
Likewise for PC players, we suggest keeping a backup save at this stage of the game. It will allow you to reload from the point of no return in case the system overwrites your main file.
Dragons and decisions
In any case, at the conclusion of the Legacy quest, you’ll find yourself facing off against the Dragon. They will hold your beloved (i.e. the person with whom you have the highest affinity) in their talons. You’re then given a choice:
Bad ending: Walk away from the Dragon and let them have your beloved.
A cutscene will play showing your character sitting on a throne, but looking sullen and dejected. When you load your save from the main menu, you’ll be brought back to the fight just before you speak with the Dragon.
Normal ending: Advance toward the Dragon and attack them. They will accept your challenge.
You’ll ride on dragonback, with the Dragon talking to you as they fly to the island where you’ll do battle with them. Once the Dragon has been defeated, a cutscene will play. The people are rejoicing and everyone seems so happy as they cheer you on in the throne room.
Should you go for your next run in New Game Plus mode? If you want to try New Game Plus mode, just head back to the main menu after the credits roll.
