Regardless of how players feel about the game's inclusion of microtransactions, the fact remains that Dragon's Dogma 2 is going down as one of the most talked-about releases of 2024 and proving to be every bit the cult classic that its predecessor was. Capcom continues to exhibit a seemingly unstoppable hot streak in the wake of Dragon's Dogma 2's success, and the publisher is gearing up for an even bigger 2025 with the upcoming release of Monster Hunter Wilds. This is the perfect timing, then, for the latest entry in the long-running Monster Hunter series to borrow one of the most important combat mechanics from the Dragon's Dogma franchise.
