|gameinfo          = Conflict has erupted between the Empire and the Union. Caim, a Union warrior, teams up with a dragon to unravel the mystery behind the Empire's sudden rise to power. In Drakengard, you must guide several characters, including Caim and his dragon, as they engage and destroy enemies on multiple battlefields. Fly high on the red dragon, and dispatch airborne opponents with powerful dragon fire and special attacks. You can even engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, while using each character's set of magic abilities and weapons.<br />

The game is the first installment of the Drakengard series and features a mixture of ground-based hack-and-slash, aerial combat, and role-playing elements which have become a staple of the series. The story is set during a religious war between two factions—the Union and the Empire—with the war tipping in favor of the Empire. The player controls Caim, a deposed prince of the Union, in his quest for vengeance against the Empire. Wounded in battle while protecting his sister Furiae, he is forced to make a pact with a red dragon named Angelus. As they journey together, they join with Hierarch Verdelet on a quest to prevent the Empire from destroying magical seals that keep the world in balance: Furiae acts as the central seal, and her death will drop the world into chaos.

|Comments=Hardware modes are GPU heavy maxing out the GS thread, while Software rendering maxes out the EE thread even with MTVU. Game speed can drop as low as 70% depending on how many enemies are on screen, and averages around 90%. The EE timing and VU1 kickstart manual gamefixes can improve the speed slightly (5-10%). EE cyclerate reduction causes internal slowdown.
