After a long wait, fans finally now know when they can play upcoming Dragon Quest series spin-off Dragon Quest Treasures – and the wait isn’t far off at all. Fans will be playing the spin-off this December.
Dragon Quest Treasures was first announced a little over a year ago as part of last year’s Dragon Quest 35th anniversary celebrations – but like all of those announcements, it was predominantly aimed at Japan, and only really lightly acknowledged by Square Enix’s Western branches. Now, the game is getting full promotion in the West ahead of a December 9th release, just a handful of months away.
The new spin-off features Erik and Mia, siblings who’ll be familiar to players of Dragon Quest 11: Echoes of an Elusive Age. The pair live on a cool-looking Viking Longship, and end up getting taken to a mysterious land – which is where they embark on a new adventure that’s a gigantic treasure hunt, as you’d expect from the name of the game.
