Dragon Nest 2 (Chinese name 龙之谷2) is the sequel to one of the most cherished action MMORPGs on PC. It isn't the first shot at a follow-up to the original game, however; Dragon Nest 2: Legend was released for mobile devices and shut down in late 2017.
The Dragon Nest 2 download will only be available for Android and iOS, since once again there is no PC version in development. A Dragon Nest 2 apk should be available in case you prefer to play on PC using an Android emulator, if the game allows it.
Besides, it isn't developed by the makers of the PC game, Eyedentity, who decided to take a different path while staying within the same franchise – World of Dragon Nest mobile is their game, with Dragon Nest 2 development being handled by Chinese studio Shengqu Games.
Chinese giant Tencent is publishing this game, with the target country being China. There is no word if a Dragon Nest 2 global release is in the cards, but considering that many fans still have a soft spot for the original PC game, it's something that could happen. We're hoping that at least one of them gets an English release, either Dragon Nest 2 or World of Dragon Nest.
It's too early to have the official Dragon Nest 2 download size, but somewhere between 3 GB and 4 GB at launch is a reasonable bet, judging by the current file size of mobile MMORPGs.
The Dragon Nest 2 classes featured at launch are the Warrior, Archer, Mage, and Minister, which is the Chinese name for the Cleric. It's a fairly short selection, but if the first game is any indication, each class is going to have several advancement paths to evolve into.
One of the things that stands out is just how colorful Dragon Nest 2 is. The colors are vivid and the characters feel like part of an anime. It's a pretty game for sure, although gameplay seems to lean toward the generic side of MMORPGs. We'll let you know about the Dragon Nest 2 release date and additional info as soon as we get it, but our estimate points to a mid-2020 release in China.
