The DanMan Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) http://gematsu.com/2015/07/dragon-quest-xi-logo-leaked-ahead-reveal There were rumors that it would be the eleventh game in the series announced later this weak, and said rumors seem to be right.

Falling Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Dragon Quest was a great series, from what I played on it. I'm just curious what route they're gonna go down- Dragon Quest 8, 9, or 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Welp, it's been announced. It's coming to PS4 and 3DS, as well as the NX. PS4 has straight HD visuals, while the 3DS has cutesy chibi style on top and 2d SNES-style graphics on the bottom. Square plans to release it in time for the 30th anniversary of the series. Now, this just raises questions about the NX: it seems like the Foxconn production rumors are true, if the game is going to release on NX (or it's one hell of a delayed port). Which just begs the question: is the NX actually not inferior to the PS4 and getting a straight port of that, or is it the 3DS successor and getting an enhanced port of that version?

Nightmare Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 It's not like the PS4 version's graphics are bleedin' edge MGS5 level of ultra-realistic graphics. NX or even the Wii U, I'm certain, wouldn't need to really push themselves to render the game. That said, both versions are looking pretty amazing and it's nice that they're doing three different graphical styles for the game. Too bad we'll never get it, though.

NoirCore Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I wouldn't jump on the "NX is coming out next year" train with this news, because IGN's article on the news updated, saying that Square Enix said that the games are under CONSIDERATION for the NX. No article I've seen has even said that the games would come out for the NX next year, just that the games were for the NX (before SE made the consideration statement). I don't think the NX is coming out next year, anyways. It needs to be announced at an E3, and that's only one month away from the supposed release date. That's too short of a wait between a console announcement and release. The Wii U just picked up steam with Mario Kart, Smash, and Splatoon, too, so I doubt it will end earlier than five years (which is how long Nintendo's consoles usually last, if not more) over being a "failure". Sorry I have nothing to say on Dragon Quest and instead only the NX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) ^Just checked another article and they updated with that info. Nice backpedaling there, Square. And on a side note, the protagonist is Future Trunks. Edited July 28, 2015 by The DanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked And Dangerous Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 It is a shame we'll probably only see the 3DS version here, since Square has a bad relationship with the West when it comes to Dragon Quest. Pretty much all the DQ games released in the West were localized by Nintendo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonLord Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The fact that they are considering the NX could mean they've seen what it's capable of, which is a good sign. Guess we'll see how things play out from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Well if anything it shows at least Nintendo is trying and being aggressive with the NX and possibly getting dev kits out. I wonder what this means as to what stage the console is in development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Leu Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Okay. sure why not ? I personally think DQ is over, but I'm not complaining. Will it be a MMO ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked And Dangerous Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Okay. sure why not ? I personally think DQ is over, but I'm not complaining. Will it be a MMO ? Nope. Single player experience. It's the thirtieth anniversary and the previous game is still going strong, they aren't gonna make an MMO under those circumstances. Especially since X is allegedly getting a port to the NX too.

Masked And Dangerous Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We got a scrap load of new screenshots from Siliconera. The console version looks very pretty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical CC Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I made a topic asking about Dragon Quest. I tried to play it...but the Dragon Ball artwork hurt so much so I gave up on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North888 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 We haven't even gotten DQ 10 over here. and the remakes of DQ 7 and 8 skipped American 3DS (m-my childhood Q_Q). I think it's safe to say whatever systems it comes out on, it ain't comin to America unless its a launch title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of Toriyama too, eh ? Hopefully, the gameplay and story will make you come back. We got a scrap load of new screenshots from Siliconera. The console version looks very pretty Indeed it's beautiful ! And this game is supposed to come out in the normal 3DS. *happy sigh* I don't know which style I should choose both are so awesome. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
