In Dragon's Dogma 2, managing in-game time is crucial for participating in various activities and quests that depend on the time of day. Here's how to pass the time in Dragon's Dogma 2.

Taking the time of day into account in Dragon's Dogma 2 is essential for strategic planning, especially when doing time-sensitive missions or daily activities. Day and night cycles alternate slowly, and each day in the game lasts about an hour in real time.

Certain missions, such as The Unknown Village mission and An Unsettling Encounter, both require you to enter Venworth Palace under the guise of night and can only be completed during a time period between sunset and sunrise. Such missions will be marked with a blue Pawn hand if they are time-sensitive. Additionally, certain activities, such as ox cart departures, will only take place in the early morning.

One way to jump forward in time is to find a bench in the game world. By sitting down and falling asleep, you can speed up time. This method is especially useful if you are waiting for a specific time to travel, or waiting for the next departure of the ox cart.
