Someone at Capcom has clearly read the fan mail I’ve been sending them, because today’s free patch for Dragon’s Dogma 2 includes a surprise bit of content: outfits and custom pawns of Laios and Marcille from Ryoko Kui’s beloved cooking manga Delicious in Dungeon .

If you haven’t read or watched Delicious in Dungeon (or, as it’s known in Japan, Dungeon Meshi ), this might seem like the most random collab of all time, a bit like when Nintendo put a literal Mercedes-Benz in Mario Kart 8 . But trust me, it’s a perfect crossover. B oth Dragon’s Dogma and Delicious in Dungeon take a lot of inspiration from Dungeons & Dragons— and I’m now just realizing as I type this that the abundance of double-Ds in the last sentence probably isn’t a coincidence.

The free armor sets of both Laios and Marcille fit perfectly in Dragon’s Dogma 2 too, although, um…the official Laios and Marcille companion pawns do look a little off . Reminds me of the Delicious in Dungeon episode where the party gets replaced by shapeshifters.…
