Drakengard, also known as Drag-On Dragoon, for Sony PS2 is a hybrid action-role-playing game (RPG). It combines on-foot hack-and-slash combat and aerial dragon combat. The game's dark and grim storyline, soaked in folklore and peppered with some quite adult themes, sets it apart from most other console RPGs. Players play as Caim, a disillusioned prince, who forms a pact with a dragon to seek revenge on an empire. The game features multiple endings and a vast array of weapons each with unique backstory. It's known for its fusion of RPG and action elements with compelling narrative.
