Based in an epic fantasy setting, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen combines exhilarating and deep combat with the freedom to explore and interact in this rich and detailed world.

Oooh boy. I loved DDDA on the PS3. Very much looking forward to playing it again with a higher frame rate/resolution.

Any word on what resolution and frame rate the game will play?

That actually hasn't been specified yet, but going from the trailer, it's gotten a bump from 720 to 1080, and the frame rate is better. To what degree I can't say. Looks like everything else is the same, which is fine by me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGrGtFX1P-Y

No, that hasn't been specified yet. Going from the reveal trailer, it looks like a bump from 720 to 1080, and the frame rate is probably a locked 30. Not sure about any other possible improvements. It doesn't look like an overly ambitious upgrade, but I'm fine with that.
