A role-playing MMO will be coming to the Nintendo Switch, Dragon Quest X. Check out the trailer here.
Recently, Nintendo announced the price, launch date, and a game lineup for the Nintendo Switch. During the reveal event, various publishers were introduced who will release games on the Nintendo Switch. Among them is “Square Enix”, which is bringing the MMORPG Dragon Quest X to Nintendo’s new hybrid console.
Dragon Quest X takes place in the fictional world of “Astoltia”, where one must confront the Lord of Hell “Nelgel”. Nelgel tears the souls of the people of Astoltia from their bodies and places them into the bodies of other beings: Ogre, Elf, Dwarf, Puklipo, or Weddie.
To defeat Nelgel, one must collect magical crystals. The gameplay follows the rules of a classic MMORPG with real-time combat and an open world. There is also a job system connected to the skills and abilities of the characters.
Much is still not known about Dragon Quest X for the Nintendo Switch. There is already a version of the game for PC, mobile platforms, and Nintendo 3DS. However, it is currently Japan-exclusive. Dragon Quest X was released in August 2012
It may be that Studio Square Enix will reveal more soon, including whether there will be a port to Europe available. So far, regarding the port of Dragon Quest X to other media, it was said that a port would be initiated if enough fans demanded it.
The release date for Dragon Quest X is still not known.
