Square Enix have announced Dragon Quest XII: The Flames of Fate, during the series’ 35th anniversary livestream.
The announcement trailer showed very little, but gave an ominous tone with its fiery text, and a voice saying “what is the purpose of light?” Creator Yuji Horii also described the game as “an adult Dragon Quest” during the livestream, and how a decision players or the character makes will change the game dramatically.
The game will also change the command battle system, but still be the well known turn-based RPG battle system.
Dragon Quest XII: The Flames of Fate is coming soon with a worldwide simultaneous release. You can find the Japanese announcement trailer below.
We shall keep you informed as we learn more.
