Netflix gets in on an anime adaptation of Capcom’s least-appreciated classic

When you think of Capcom, you probably think of games like Street Fighter and Mega Man. Maybe Dead Rising and Resident Evil. Perhaps even Darkstalkers and Phoenix Wright. You probably don’t think of Dragon’s Dogma, and that’s a crying shame - but at least someone is recognising its brilliance, because Netflix is helping bring the game to life in an anime adaptation. Netflix will partner with Japanese CG animation studio Sublimation to bring out Dragon’s Dogma, which the official press release describes as “an original anime series based on the critically acclaimed video game of the same name.” Sadly, it looks like we’re not getting any details beyond that just yet. Representative director Atsushi Koishikawa says “Sublimation team has long dreamt of working on our own title. We have oftentimes worked with partner studios to create partial CGI portions within a given title, so we feel very fortunate to work with Netflix through this production line deal. We're excited to bring our unique cel shaded animation that carries hand-drawn textures to anime fans around the world.”
