Capcom has yet to publically announce the next mainline entry in the Resident Evil series, nor has it announced the next of its remakes.

It was revealed earlier this week thatCapcom was Metacritic’s highest-rated publisher in 2023, based on the quality of its releases last year.

However, that hasn’t stopped its latest release, Dragon’s Dogma 2,coming under criticism.

While the gamereceived glowing pre-release reviews, following today’s launch it has had a ‘mixed’ reception onSteam, where just 40% of over 9,300 user reviews are positive.

Players discovered on Friday thatthere are 21 separate DLC purchasesavailable on day one. Disappointment appears to stem from the fact that some of them are for things that players feel should be easier to obtain in-game for free.
