As you might suspect, Dragon’s Dogma (out today!) features a dragon or two. But one stands above the rest as not just a menacing foe, but also as a cool gameplay hook that spices up your travels. That’d be the Ur Dragon, detailed in this earlier Unity post .

GamesRadar (in celebration of Dogma, I like to think) posted a ” Top 7… Most awesome dragons ” list this week and rightfully included ol’ Urry in the lineup.

The tl;dr version of the Ur Dragon is that he swoops into your game, bashes you around for a bit and then leaves to invade someone else’s campaign. However, any damage you dealt stays with the dragon into the next player’s game, until he’s eventually felled by some lucky warrior. And then boom, phat loot.
