Dragon Quest IX announced finally |
Ó
Dragon Quest probably is one of the most successful videogame series in Japan. It used to be known here in the U.S. as Dragon Warrior because of a conflict with another title but that is a different story. Anyway, there are a couple of spin-offs known right now including Dragon Quest Swords for Wii and Dragon Quest Heroes and Monsters for the DS.
Despite the above mentioned titles, people are still clamoring for a "numbered version," one that is a real part of the series. After all, the last installment was released a couple of years ago for the PS2. To answer the fans call, Square Enix came up today with a press conference to ascertain the matter.
Surprisingly, upcoming Dragon Quest IX will not be released on any of the consoles but instead, on the Nintendo DS. If we are not mistaken, it is very rare for a numbered game to appear on a portable system. There are no concrete words as of now regarding the title but it will feature network play via WiFi. Also, it was subtitled as Protectors of the Sky.
Square Enix mentioned that they are initially targetting for a Japan release sometime in 2007. After that and if the game delivers, they would begin shipping it to other territories.

WTF '06? Dragon Quest 9 is going to be a portable action RPG with worse graphics then it's predecessor... yep, I won't be buying it.
You got all this from two early screens eh? I don't think it will matter because it will be the second coming of Jesus in Japan. The two screen shots (at Gemaga not above) look alright. It might be good who knows it was just announced!
Dragon Quest IX for the best system out there Nintendo DS!!!!!!!!!
You don't need to buy it. About 5 million other people will. And the graphics will be just right, for the developers know what they want to do with the game and will do wonders with the DS. Don't be mad that it's not coming out on a playstation product though it'll be okay
Jessica,Angelo, Yangus and Hero will be here in this game? because i love Jessica ._.
