# Bundle or expansion? How to buy Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen without paying twice

Dark Arisen came out on October 9, and a lot of people are stuck on the same question: $49.99 or $29.99? The store page doesn't make it clear which one you need, and there are two prices and only one name.

The short answer

* You own Dragon's Dogma 2 on PS5, Xbox or Steam: buy the expansion for $29.99.
* You don't own it: buy the bundle for $49.99. It includes the base game.
* You're on Switch 2: the bundle is the only version.

Teaser is here: ​​ [Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen - Main Trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmKyRay8hGc)

## Why the name is confusing

If “Dark Arisen” rings a bell, you're probably remembering the 2013 expanded re-release of the first Dragon's Dogma. This one is built differently. On PS5, Xbox and Steam, Dark Arisen is an add-on that does nothing without the base game. The $49.99 “Dark Arisen” product is that add-on sold together with the base game. On Switch 2, DD2 is arriving for the first time, so only the bundle exists there.

## What's inside

The main attraction is Norgan, a snowy region in the north that nobody has lived in for ages. The story there is called Forsaken Dominion: you team up with a new character, Eir, to find out what's going on with the undying Fallen Dragon.

Back on the familiar map you get twelve new dungeons called Lost Rites. The character creator gets new options too.

Title Update 4.0 arrives the same day, with Hard Mode and quality-of-life changes. Earlier title updates this year were free for everyone, so check the patch notes to see what 4.0 needs the expansion for. Capcom has also added a new batch of Official Pawns with names like Toy Leon and Knockoff Ryu.

## New to DD2? The bundle is the cheaper route

Capcom spent June getting the store ready. The expansion was announced at a Nintendo Direct that month. Within weeks, the Deluxe Edition of the base game disappeared, along with most of the paid shortcut items from launch, such as Wakestones, which bring dead characters back to life. The base game also got a permanent price cut. It launched at $69.99, and in Europe it now costs €39.99.

Here's what that does to the math, in euros. The base game plus the expansion bought separately is €69.98. The bundle is €49.99, so you save about €20. Check the base game's price in your region: as long as it's above $20, the bundle is cheaper.

If the microtransactions were why you skipped DD2 at launch, most of them are gone now.

## Already own DD2? Three things before you buy

* Level 40 is recommended for Norgan, though you can walk in earlier.
* To start the DLC, talk to Captain Brant at the Stardrop Inn in Vernworth at night. He gets two new dialogue options: one for the Norgan story, one for Lost Rites.
* If your save has already reached the Unmoored World, the DLC stays locked until you start New Game+.

## Is it worth it?

Two early reviews are out. Vice calls it a must-play with enough content to pass as a standalone game. RPGFan calls it the definitive Dragon's Dogma sequel, though it says the story is basic. Two reviews aren't a verdict, so player reviews on Steam will tell you more in a few weeks.

Buy it if you liked DD2 and wanted a reason to go back, or if you're new and the bundle costs less than the base game plus the expansion. If you dropped DD2 early because it didn't click, an expansion to that same game is a hard sell.

On Switch 2, check performance reports before you buy, since the bundle is the only way to get the game there.

One of the most striking features of the Toyota LandCruiser Prado concept is its unconventional 'yoke' steering wheel. Similar to the design found in some Tesla electric cars, this innovative steering wheel replaces the traditional circular shape with a sleek and futuristic yoke. Inspired by aircraft and Formula One racing technology, the yoke steering wheel provides drivers with a new level of control and precision.

## A Pedal-Free Driving Experience

Toyota has taken the concept of a futuristic driving experience even further by removing the accelerator and brake pedals entirely. In their place, the LandCruiser Prado incorporates hand-operated controls on the yoke steering wheel. This unique design allows drivers with lower limb impairments to enjoy a safe and intuitive driving experience while maintaining an unrestricted driving position. Additionally, the pedal-free floor space provides extra room and enhances the overall comfort of the vehicle.

## Neo Steer System: A Game-Changing Innovation

![Image from drive.com.au](img/neo-steer.png "Image from drive.com.au")

Image from drive.com.au\
\
Toyota's innovative steering system, known as 'Neo Steer,' takes inspiration from motorcycle handlebars. By adopting a 'steer-by-wire' technology, the LandCruiser Prado achieves a more seamless and efficient driving experience. The steering ratio automatically adjusts according to the vehicle's speed, eliminating the need for hand-over-hand maneuvers. This advanced system provides drivers with enhanced control and responsiveness on the road.

## Diverging Paths: Toyota vs. Tesla Steering Wheels

While both Toyota and Tesla have embraced the yoke steering wheel design, there are notable differences in their implementations. Unlike Tesla's yoke steering wheel, which is connected to a traditional steering rack, Toyota has opted for a steer-by-wire system. This innovative choice allows Toyota to offer a smoother and more adaptable steering experience, catering to various driving conditions and eliminating the need for multiple turns from lock to lock.

## Future Prospects and Implications

\
Although the LandCruiser Prado concept with the yoke steering wheel and pedal-free design is currently in the prototype stage, it represents Toyota's commitment to pushing the boundaries of automotive innovation. While there are no immediate plans to introduce this concept into production models, it serves as a testament to Toyota's dedication to inclusivity and providing a comfortable driving experience for all individuals, regardless of physical abilities.

## Conclusion

Toyota's unveiling of the LandCruiser Prado concept with a Tesla-style yoke steering wheel and no pedals signifies a significant leap forward in automotive design and technology. This innovative concept not only showcases Toyota's commitment to creating inclusive vehicles but also highlights their willingness to explore unconventional ideas. As the automotive industry continues to evolve, we can expect to see more groundbreaking innovations that redefine the driving experience for everyone. The LandCruiser Prado is a testament to the exciting future that lies ahead.
