Does anybody have a link to an article (in Japanese) that states the game will be on a home console?
All I can find is a statement by Yuji Horii saying that he "wants to play" the next numbered DQ game on a big screen.
This is by no means a confirmation.
Is there any official statement regarding this matter?
If not it might as well be on the 3DS and mobile.

He confirmed it again earlier this month.

"Je pense vraiment que les jeux doivent être conçus pour différentes plates-formes. Dragon Quest XI sera, par exemple, un jeu conçu pour console de salon, car il sera pensé pour des contrôles à la manette."

"I think games should be designed for the platforms they're on. Dragon Quest XI is designed for home consoles because it uses a game controller as part of its design."

I know it says for a home console, but still feels like it could be a 3DS games.

Other than that its probably going to be a PS4/Vita game.

I'd be entirely fine with 3DS/PS4, would lower the effect on PS4 hardware in Japan but that's not really my problem. Would also make all the bickering between all of us pretty funny in retrospective. Lol

2 more hours guys!!

And I'm cream crackered. I'll be really pished if I fall asleep at the keyboard and miss it.

Lol sucks for you, it's 8am here I just woke up. :p

I've been to bed twice now and just couldn't sleep. It had nothing to do with this and more to do with drinking ar too much tea.

Just woke up, around 90min. to go, stream schedule is perfect for me.

A bit afraid about the technical part if PS4/3DS confirmed (what happened to the "designed for a controller"?), but it would be the best for a bigger userbase, so we'll see!

Not really if the real DQ XI is on PS4 and the one on 3DS only some kind of spin off ( since Horii said DQ XI is made for home console)
