As Dragon’s Dogma 2 gets a large, mysterious patch on Steam for its second anniversary, we wonder: is this more proof of that rumoured DLC drop?

Dragon’s Dogma 2 has received a substantial and mysterious update on Steam, coinciding with the game’s second anniversary. The patch has renewed speculation about potential downloadable content for Capcom’s acclaimed action RPG.

According to SteamDB, the update adds approximately 12GB to the game’s installation size, bringing the total from 65GB to 77GB. While Capcom has not officially announced what the patch contains, the gaming community has speculated the size indicates new DLC content in testing or preparation for announcement.

The file size is noteworthy as a baseline for comparison. The additional 12GB is roughly the size of major expansions from other AAA titles—for example, matching the scope of Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which suggests substantial new content rather than smaller updates.

This development comes amid longstanding rumors about forthcoming Dragon’s Dogma 2 DLC. The patch appears to support those rumors, suggesting Capcom may be preparing to announce new content for the game. However, without official confirmation, the exact nature and scope of the update remains speculative based on file size estimates alone.
