Dragon’s Dogma 2 has multiple endings. One most players will see just by beating a final boss; another is somewhat hidden, and you might not find it organically. If you miss out on this true ending, you will not only not see the proper conclusion to the story, but you won’t get a chance to see a significant chunk of the game. If you’re worried about getting the wrong ending, we’re here to go over how to unlock the final section of the game. While we will avoid spoilers as much as possible, some details require tangible descriptions, so proceed at your own risk.

The diverging point in Dragon’s Dogma 2 is during the quest Legacy. In it, you are given the choice to fight a dragon or take a different route. To get the true ending, you must choose to face the dragon, but this isn’t enough to reach the game’s proper conclusion. After agreeing to the battle, you will ride on the dragon’s back to your would-be combat arena.
You maintain control in this section, and you can climb on the dragon as you travel to your destination. Rather than just stand on its back and wait, climb to the dragon’s chest and use the Empowered Godsbane Blade from your inventory. You will have received this item during the main quest, and using it on the dragon’s heart puts you on the path to achieving Dragon’s Dogma 2’s true ending. Some other things happen we won’t spoil here, and then you will enter a place called the Unmoored World. That’s when you know you’re on the right route.
From that point, you’re on your own, Arisen.
