The story of Dragon's Dogma revolves around our player, who of course is the hero of the piece, and begins with a rather unfortunate encounter with a dragon. As the dragon appears to lay waste to our village the soldiers there to protect us scatter and our character takes up a sword to attack the beast, landing one blow before being thrown to the ground. The Dragon then proceeds to rip out and consume our heart, while chanting an ominous sounding incantation. From there we are revived as an Arisen and are then destined to find, and hopefully kill, the dragon that stole our heart.
Dragon's Dogma takes place in an open world fantasy RPG setting that includes classic hack and slash content as well as horror elements which should come as no surprise. It is after all developed by the team behind Resident Evil and Devil May Cry.
