Classic Dragon Quest Games Coming to PS4 in Japan

You can already play the original Dragon Quest for free on the PlayStation 4 by beating Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age and casting a spell to redeem it. However, publisher Square Enix will be bringing all three original entries to Sony’s new-gen console this August in Japan – and you’ll be able to purchase them from the PlayStation Store.

Dragon Quest and Dragon Quest II will launch on 10th August for ‎¥600 (~$5) and ‎¥850 (~$7) respectively, while Dragon Quest III will follow in “late August” for ‎¥1,500 (~$13). There’s no word on a Western release for any of these at the time of typing, but do let us know if you’d be interested in purchasing them for your PS4 in the comments section.

EDIT. Also coming to the 3DS:

Square Enix will release Dragon Quest and Dragon Quest II digitally for PlayStation 4 and 3DS in Japan on August 10 for 600 yen and 850 yen, respectively, followed by Dragon Quest III in late August for 1,500 yen, the company announced at Dragon Quest Summer Festival 2017 in Tokyo today.

Ps4 fans are getting spoilt for choice this gen for DQ. Such a change compared to last gen.

I've read the manga: Dragon Quest Dai no Daibuken. But I haven't played any of the game titles. Are they connected?

Oh that's cool, I hope that they'll have the first DQ as an unlockable in the Western release.

They released a collection for the Wii. Remade classic games for DS and 3DS & Game Boy Color. It's a trend for them at this point.

PS4 is going to singlehandedly revive Console JRPGs.

Black Women Are The Most Beautiful Women On The Planet.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
