Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince (NSW) - December 1, 2023

[6souls]

SQUARE ENIX® announced that DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: THE DARK PRINCE is launching worldwide on December 1, 2023, on Nintendo Switch™. DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: THE DARK PRINCE gives players the power to command and recruit various types of monsters to join them on an epic new adventure.

DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: THE DARK PRINCE features Psaro, the demon prince, whose curse prevents him from harming monsters. As a result, he must become a Monster Wrangler, recruiting, and fighting alongside monsters throughout the various environments of the fantastical world of Nadiria. Over the course of this adventure, the seasons will regularly cycle through Spring, Summer, Winter, and Fall, which not only changes the landscape, but also opens new areas and players will encounter different monsters specific to that season.

One of the most powerful tools in the player arsenal is the newly evolved synthesis system which allows players to create completely new monsters by combining those already on their roster. Players can experiment and eventually unlock over 500 monsters, including franchise favourites, dark lords, and completely new creatures. Once players have assembled their dream roster, they can take their teams of powerful monsters online, to battle against other Monster Wranglers around the world.

I've never played any of the previous DQ Monster games but I'd try this out

Oh shit you play as Psaro?

Necrobump but this has just released on PC and mobile (lol @that though) and is a much better experience than Switch - higher resolutions, 60 fps etc, plus already includes all the DLC, so it's actually cheaper than the Switch version.

If anyone was on the fence previously about this one, because of the performance, this might be a great opportunity to try this out.

I never finished this game. Playing emulated switch on my deck. Would be ecstatic to play this natively if save files are easy enough to convert. (surely someone will do that at some point.. probably?)

Thanks for the heads up. This fell off my radar. Gonna wishlist it for when it goes on sale
