Dragon Quest IV Coming to the DS

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the very-targeted-appeal dept.

Kotaku is reporting that, while no official announcement has been forthcoming, a new Square Enix Dragon Quest IV teaser site has been launched. It seems that the game is slated for a September 16th release in the US for the DS. In addition to the announcement, the site also seems to be promising Dragon Quest V and VI at undisclosed times in the future.

  1. Actually, it was "released' many months ago. by RyanFenton · · Score: 4, Informative

    The Japanese Rom of the DS title had the complete English translation contained within it, minus a couple bits of the intro, and of some bonus content. The entire game was playable with a simple patch (google it) to the rom and a copy to a DS flash cart.

    The conversion on the DS is a quite nice job, actually. It's definitely my favorite of the Dragon Quest series - classic simple Dragon Quest gameplay, with excellent characters, and a driving sense of progress that is a bit missing from the later games.
