The latest iteration in the main Dragon Quest series, Dragon Quest XI, has been confirmed to be localized and coming to the west in 2018!

LONDON (28th July 2017) –Fans of the DRAGON QUEST® series, and those looking for a new and exciting RPG adventure are certain to rejoice with today’s announcement from Square Enix Ltd., that DRAGON QUEST XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age™ will be coming to the West next year.

The highly anticipated latest entry to the beloved DRAGON QUEST series follows the adventure of a hero who must solve the mystery of his fate with the aid of a charming cast of supporting characters. DRAGON QUEST XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age will offer a world of adventure, exploration and instances of heroism— all brought to life by character art of famed manga artist Akira Toriyama and the memorable music of composer Koichi Sugiyama.

No word on which platforms will be included in this release, but we are promised more information "Autumn 2017". The JP releases were on PS4 and 3DS, with a planned Switch version, so it's likely these are the platforms it will be releasing on, which is good news for the Switch.

yay... more rehashed storylines, more of the same old menu system, more of the same old story structure, more of the same old equipment, more of the same old useless spells, more of the hurrdurr, dis here town got da funny accent.

i mean, really, its just gonna be monster x wrecks havok in human world, gets beaten by random chosen one, turns out to only be ruler of underworlds proxy and then there's a 2-4 phase boss battle where you're debuffed every two turns.

I love It. The "news" isn't that fun.

Are there any gameplay/plot differences between the PS4 and 3DS or just graphical changes?
