Dragon’s Dogma 2 is getting a Fallout-inspired homesteading mod with fully customisable houses, and its creator has tons of big ideas for it
A modder working under the name SonicaKP is developing a new mod for Dragon's Dogma 2 that introduces Fallout-style homesteading, allowing players to build and furnish their own houses from scratch. The mod, shown in a gameplay demo, lets users construct a home in the countryside using gathered resources and decorate it with furniture bought with in-game gold, distinguishing it from other customisation mods that feel more like shortcuts by fitting more naturally within the base game's systems.
The creator, who previously released the RiftSpeak AI conversation mod for the game's main pawn, has not given a release date but says this homesteading feature is part of a larger planned expansion. Future additions are said to include creature taming, new mounts such as griffins, gardening and deeper homesteading mechanics, drawing comparisons to Skyrim's Hearthfire DLC. The mod's development comes as Capcom prepares its own official Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion, due for release on 9th October, led by original Dark Arisen director Kenta Kinoshita, amid efforts to address player feedback on the base game.
In short
- Modder is building a Fallout-style homesteading mod for Dragon's Dogma 2
- Players can construct and furnish custom houses using in-game resources
- Wider expansion planned with taming, new mounts and gardening features
Explained simply
Dragon's Dogma 2 is an action role-playing game where players engage in combat and exploration. A modder known as SonicaKP is developing a new add-on that allows players to build and decorate their own houses using resources gathered during gameplay, drawing inspiration from homesteading systems in the Fallout game series. The modification integrates naturally into the game rather than feeling like a shortcut, with houses constructed from scratch and furnished using in-game currency.
SonicaKP previously released an AI conversation mod and has indicated that homesteading is just the first part of a larger expansion plan. The modder intends to add creature taming, new mounts including griffins, gardening systems, and deeper homesteading mechanics, comparable to official expansions such as Skyrim: Hearthfire, though no release date has been announced.
