Fans of the iconic Dragon Quest series have a new reason to celebrate, albeit only in Japan. The latest installment, Dragon Quest X, renowned for its MMORPG elements, is set to launch on mobile devices with an offline version. This exciting development comes as the game becomes available for iOS and Android starting tomorrow, offering Japanese fans a chance to dive into the adventure at a discounted price.
As reported by Gematsu, Dragon Quest X Offline transforms the multiplayer experience into a single-player journey, making it accessible on mobile platforms. This offline version, which hit consoles and PC back in 2022, brings the unique real-time combat and other MMORPG features that set Dragon Quest X apart from its predecessors. Interestingly, this isn't the first time Dragon Quest X was eyed for a mobile release; Ubitu had plans to bring it to mobile devices as far back as 2013.
Unfortunately, for fans outside Japan, a global release of Dragon Quest X Offline on mobile seems unlikely at this point. The original version of the game was exclusive to Japan, and there's currently no news on an international rollout. This is a disappointment for dedicated Dragon Quest enthusiasts like myself, who have spent countless hours immersed in games like Sentinels of the Starry Sky and would love to explore this new mobile version.
