The newest entry of the Dragon Quest franchise, Dragon Quest Walk has been announced in the recent Dragon Quest stream.

The game will launch for Ios and Android in Japan on 2019.



The game seems to be heavily inspired from Pokemon Go.

They pretty much said "it's pokémon go with DQ monsters". Fair, the franchise has great monsters.

The last bit (12:25) make it look like you will be fighting monsters. I don't care about DQ, but if this come West, I've a couple of friends that will love it

I quite like that trailer. I like the use of 'real' mobile phone shot footage in stead of those cinematic Pokémon GO ones. It fits the type of game.

Honestly kind of surprised this didn't come sooner.

So just to clarify, this is not the thing on the 10th, right?

Wonder if it will come stateside. Also I guess this was the DQ announcement we were waiting for.

The Shonen Jump "surprising reveal"? Yeah, it's this. If you were thinking it would be an E3 reveal for Smash, the lead time needed for print would mean the info would get leaked early.

Would it even work outside Japan? It looks like they have a Tokyo Tower in that screenshot. It could be GPS locked.

Nah I didn't think it was anything related to Smash (though I'd be lying if I said I wasn't slightly suspicious of that final shot of Erdrick's sword), I was just curious if there was something else coming. Guess not.

Yes! I'll be living in Japan starting September, so perfect. I have AT&T though, so I won't have 4G, meaning not perfect.

You can get quests from NPCs (with actual portraits and dialogue) and then will have to walk to places in real life to complete the quests.

I'm hardcore against the idea of a Pokemon Go kind of thing, but then I see Dragon Quest monsters and I just don't know if I can resist

augh

I would lose 20 pounds from playing this if it ever came out in the west, but it doesn't seem likely. Should make my next visit to Japan (whenever that may be :'-( ) pretty exciting, though.

Damn, that looks fucking amazing. I loved the trailer, the monsters really blended well with the people.
