There are three ways to change time in Dragon’s Dogma 2 – resting at a camp/inn, passing time on benches, or taking a journey on an Oxcart. Any of these will allow you to wake up at different times, perfect for whatever you have planned in your playthrough.

In our opinion, the best option for skipping time in the game is using the camp/inn resting method. This is because you’re able to pick whether you want to wake up in the morning or nightfall, making it optimal if you want a specific time.

Passing time on benches is also a good option as these are scattered throughout main areas, requiring a little less exploring to find them.
