How to Get All Endings in Dragon’s Dogma 2
To unlock all the endings in Dragon’s Dogma 2, you’ll need to make a critical choice at a pivotal moment. Fortunately, the game allows you to experience every ending on a single save file, making it easier to witness the different narrative paths.
You’ll know you’re approaching the endgame when a distinct sequence of events unfolds after visiting the Seafloor Ruins and creating the Empowered Godsbane Blade.
Delivering the Godsbane to Phaseus at the Moonlight Tower sets this sequence in motion, so ensure you’re ready before proceeding.
Note: Before you go on, make sure to finish everything you want done. Because it’s a point of no going back after talking with Phaseus. Also note that this guide contains SPOILERS!
How to Get Good and Bad Endings in Dragon’s Dogma 2
The “good” and “bad” endings in Dragon’s Dogma 2 are tied to the “Legacy” main quest, which begins after completing “The Guardian Gigantus.”
During this quest, you’ll have a conversation with the main dragon, who reveals they’ve captured the NPC with whom you have the highest affinity level.
The dragon then presents you with two choices:
‘Good’ Ending Option
Approach and attack the dragon to initiate the “good” ending path. After the final battle, you’ll become the Sovran of Vermund, and the credits will roll over a festive banquet scene.
‘Bad’ Ending Option
Walking away from the dragon triggers the “bad” ending, where you still become Sovran, but the ending scene has a much darker tone.
How to Get the True Ending in Dragon’s Dogma 2
To unlock the “true” ending of Dragon’s Dogma 2, follow these steps:
- Forge the Empowered Godsbane Sword: Create the sword and empower it at the Forbidden Magick Research Lab.
- Face the dragon’s choice: When the dragon offers to let you walk away or stay and fight, choose to fight.
- Climb to the dragon’s heart: While flying on the dragon’s back, climb to its heart.
- Use the Empowered Godsbane Sword on yourself: Open your inventory and select “Use” on the sword, then choose to use it on yourself when prompted.
- Explore the Unmoored World: After plunging the sword into your heart and falling into the sea, you’ll awake in the Unmoored World. Complete the available quests to witness the true ending.
Getting All Endings in One Playthrough
If you’ve already completed one of the first two endings but haven’t started New Game Plus, you can still unlock the true ending.
After completing the “good” ending, look for the Pathfinder – the spectral figure who has guided you – sitting at a table near the throne during the credits.
Speak to him twice, and he’ll send you back in time to the moment you were flying on the dragon’s back, allowing you to follow the steps for the true ending.
