In Dragon's Dogma 2, doing a crime will definitely score you some time. But why serve the entirety of your sentence when I can show you how to get out of prison; simply follow this guide and be on your way.
How to escape the castle's Gaol in Dragon's Dogma 2
Several things will have you arrested in Dragon's Dogma 2, besides partaking in a bit of the ultra-violence. When you're caught in the castle at night, you will be arrested and confined by the city watch, making certain stealth-based quests more risky.
My immediate thoughts leaned towards save-scumming, but this approach didn't work this time as I found out the game autosaved upon my arrest, leaving me Gaol sans equipment. Fortunately, there are a total of three ways to avoid doing the hard time in Dragon's Dogma 2:
- Bribing a Warden.
- Finding a Secret Passage.
- Utilizing the Gaol Key.

Finding a Secret Passage to escape the castle's Gaol in Dragon's Dogma 2
An alternative escape involves a less costly but more adventurous approach. Inspecting your cell reveals a weak wall section leading to the sewer tunnels. Following the rightward main tunnel eventually guides you to the outskirts of the Royal Quarter, offering a stealthy exit without financial loss. Just be ready to fist-fight some bats on your way out.
Utilizing the Gaol Key to get out of Jail in Dragon's Dogma 2
A peculiar yet feasible prison escape method in Dragon's Dogma 2 arises if you possess the Gaol key provided by Brant during the Meet with Magistrate Waldhar quest. Post-arrest, you'll discover that your character concealed the key, enabling you to unlock the cell. Surprisingly, the guards ignore your newfound freedom within the tower. Your exit choices include the following options:
- Northern Tower, leading upstairs to the Royal Quarter.
- Southern Tower, directing you outside the eastern walls of the Royal Quarter.
Note that certain merchants can even sell you a Makeshift Gaol Key for various prices. Such a key will get you out of your cell, but it's a one-time use only, as it will break after using it once. Using it will also limit your escape options somewhat, as the Northern Tower escape will be impossible due to a locked gate in your way.
