Staff
Director, Producer: Shinya Sugai (Walking Meat)
Executive Producer: Taiki Sakurai (Lost Song)
Co-Producer: Hiroyuki Kobayashi (Biohazard: Degeneration), Takashi Kitahara (Biohazard: Damnation)
Script: Kurasumi Sunayama (Ultraman)

The Dragon's Dogma adaptation is one of many productions that will come from Netflix's recent partnerships with animation studios Sublimation, Anima, and David Production.

Capcom released Dragon's Dogma for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 in May 2012. The company then released an updated version of the game in April 2013 titled Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, and it was ported to the Nintendo Switch in April 2019. The series has sold five million copies worldwide as of March 31.

Liked the game a lot, imagine a Dragon's Dogma game with the RE engine...can't find another game with the same atmosphere, the sound track and those immersive nights.

I finally bought DDDA a few months ago, but haven't got round to playing it yet. Maybe this will motivate me to? Hopefully it's good. It at least shows that the IP isn't dead.

I remember buying this game when it first came out. Good times.

I hope the anime not too gamey it will ruin the mood.

Hoping that this adaptation will be great.

I'm pretty hyped, I absolutely loved the story of Dragon's Dogma. Especially the way it started out like a generic fantasy RPG but then hits you with crazy twists and some absolute mindfuckery at the end.

Lol, now let's see if the Dragon chooses the innkeepers Asalam or Pablo as the protagonist's "most precious person". If you catch my drift. xD

Netflix, for once in your sorry existence, don't fuck things up please. Not that DD is the best videogame to adapt to anime (considering that much of its brilliance is tied to the gameplay) but it could still be amazing, if done well. If.

Wow maybe Itsuno really is working on a DD2 afterall, here's hoping this does well

Netflix actually did a phenomenal job adapting Castlevania so I expect them to adapt this game properly as well.
