After pricing Dragon’s Dogma 2 at $70, Capcom, a leading video game developer, has announced a review of its video game pricing strategy, potentially increasing the prices of their games to $70, citing rising industry-wide development costs. This comes alongside the company's decision to increase the base salary of its employees in Japan by 30%, a move possibly linked to Japan's drop to 26th globally in annual pay for IT workers, with IT engineers in Japan being paid an average of $36,061 in 2023. Additionally, anticipation grows for Dragon's Dogma 2, as updates and fan discussions suggest a demo could be on the way, following a backend Steam update.
