Dragon’s Dogma 2 features many characters with names that are Welsh in origin.
Some examples include Glyndwr, referencing the great Welsh leader Owain Glyndŵr.
Glyndwr’s father in the game is Taliesin, with his name deriving from the famous Welsh poet.
The character Myrddin’s name comes from the Welsh prophet of the same name. This is also the Welsh variant of the name Merlin, probably most commonly known as the magician from the Welsh legend of King Arthur.
Other characters with Welsh origin names in Dragon’s Dogma 2 include: Dylan, Gareth, Glennda, Glynis, Gwen, Lynn, Megan and Morganna.
Welsh actor Grahame Fox plays the role of the Dragon, while Kezia Burrows voices various additional non-playable characters.
The first Dragon’s Dogma game also features characters with Welsh names, and the fields were inspired by the land of Wales itself.
