Dragon Quest X Coming to the 3DS

Square Enix has announced on its official website for Dragon Quest X that the video game will be seeing a Nintendo 3DS release soon. Dragon Quest X is a online installment to the popular Dragon Quest franchise. The Japanese MMORPG was originally made will the Nintendo Wii in mind.

The game will include all the same features on the console version. Square has promised support cross-platform play across the Wii, Wii U and PC. It utilizes cloud servers so you must be connected to the internet at all times to play. As most online games require, you will need a subscription to play. The game will come with redemption code for 60 days of free play and a few other things. Dragon Quest X Online is set to arrive September 4 of 2014. There are no signs of a localized version.

This release maybe be in response to Square Enix losing a lot of money in recent years. Sony has also sold off their shares of Square. Since then, the Japanese centered company have been announcing many video games, but not just on consoles and handhelds, but iOS and Android devices as well. This popular game may bring more profit to Square, as the 3DS is very high in sales and it’s an untouched market for MMORPGs.
