FINALLY! I was beginning to worry that X was the only good JRPG that I would get to buy this side of my retirement in the year 2039!

3-4-54391d ago (Edited 4391d ago )

2016 is a long wait, but it will be worth it.

Just need some DQ 7 3DS in the mean time to hold me over for a bit.

GREAT NEWS though... at least we got something to work with here.

2016..... My guess is Wii U or PS4.

XBOTTOX4390d ago

Never played one of these games, but have heard and read nothing but goodness about them. As far as I know they only release on intend plats, but that would be amazing if it goes multiplat

shammgod4391d ago

great news! hope its a classic

VsAssassin4391d ago

I hope it's on PS4. I don't really care if it's multiplat, I just want another DQ game. My last was 8 on the PS2.

MSBAUSTX4391d ago

I think it will be. At least the in perenthesis part of this article has it listed. So hopefully it comes too all platforms because everyone loves Dragon Quest and deserves to play it, regardless of platform preference.

VsAssassin4391d ago

The parentheses include the PS4 only because there's no official platform announced for this game yet; however, I do hope for the best and your words become a reality.

On-topic: If the game dev said that he wishes to play it on a big screen, I am thinking it will be on a console. And if we're talking about a Japanese console that is selling well right now, I bet it's the PS4.

KonsoruMasuta4391d ago (Edited 4391d ago )

The PS4 isn't really selling well right now in Japan. Hell, even the WiiU has been outselling it for the past couple of weeks. There was a couple of weeks where the PS3 outsold it.

Miss_Vixen4391d ago

I would really love to see a return of JRPG genres on ps4. I had a wonderful time playing them starting from the SNES, PSone, & PS2 era.

It's wishful thinking, but I hope the new Dragon Quest title at least makes an apparenace on one of the new consoles instead of the handheld or mobile platforms.

raWfodog4391d ago

"Horii said that he wishes to play the next Dragon Quest installment on the big screen, implying that Dragon Quest X will possibly be available on consoles. However, no word has been revealed on what console specifically."

I'd be willing to bet that it would at least be on the WiiU but I hope its also on the PS4 and X1 because I believe it'd sell very well and that would encourage future console development.

GrandpaSnake4391d ago

for some reason i totally think nintendo will snag it.

Ravenheartzero4391d ago

Hope it comes to ps4, would love an HD update of DQ journey of the cursed king, great RPG

gprime4391d ago

I would buy that remake in a heartbeat. The game looks awesome emulated at 1080, and with high-res textures for the environments, it would look even better.

Nicely done. My favorite entry next to 8/9.

Zeldafan64386d ago

My second favorite after 3 and just ahead of 8.

FullmetalRoyale386d ago

When I played this game I was in disbelief that I had somehow not played this franchise. I absolutely adored this game, and have since played two other entries. Been saving the two on 3ds. Next entry is easily a day one purchase.

Michiel1989386d ago

I had the same man, the goofy aesthetics always kinda prevented me from trying it, but boy was I wrong.

andy85386d ago

Keep 12 turn based for christ sake

andy85385d ago

Me too after the comments a few years ago. Hopefully the success of recent ones changed their idiotic thinking

Melankolis386d ago

Good. Prefer 4-7 with DS & PS1 graphic though, modest yet stimulating imagination.

Miraak82 386d ago

Only DQ game i've ever played and one of the best games I've ever played , such a great experience . I wonder if the original ps4 release was included in these sales

RedDevils386d ago

Go play 8 if you like this one.

Miraak82 386d ago

i actually bought DQ8 on ps2 back in the day but mainly for the FF12 demo disc lol . I tried it but there were sooo many rpgs to play at the time that I think I played it for for a little bit before trading it in , maybe if they come out with a remaster/remake I'll try it out again

PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup for October: GTA: Vice City, Dragon Quest XI, and more

"A bumper crop of PlayStation titles make up October’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup. All these games will be available to play starting Tuesday, October 18. Without further ado, let’s dive in. Also added this month: The Medium, Dragon Quest Builders, Dragon Quest Heroes and more. "

Wait, no new PS1, PS2 or PSP additions?

CrimsonWing691346d ago

It’s frustrating how they barely update that library. I get that Jimbo hates old games, but c’mon, the classic catalogue with trophies was a big draw for me. Was really hoping to get some heavy duty classic PS1 games to platinum. Looks like they’ll do exactly what they did on PS4 with the PS2 library…

LucasRuinedChildhood1346d ago (Edited 1346d ago )

Games like Resistance: Retribution have already been rated as well so they have some stuff ready.

I think they still don't have a healthy supply of classic games for the next few months and they have to really spread them out ... so because of all those Yakuza remasters on Premium this month ... they made the decision to hold off putting up more PSP or PS1 games until next month. :(

They need clearer communication on this. They could have said that we can look forward to some PSP games next month or something.

FinalFantasyFanatic1346d ago

I'm so glad I stuck with the essential tier, I'd be ticked paying more with the expectation that the classic catalogue would be regularly updated and built up. The classic catalogue was the biggest draw of the upper tiers for me, so not seeing any new PS1 games is pretty disappointing.

Ben Dover1346d ago

While the VC remake is a turd, this is an impressive month.

SlothLordPootus1346d ago

Has vice city been fixed? If not it feels like a weird addition. Lots for Dragon Quests fans.

jeromeface1346d ago

fixed? Its kinda hard to fix something that was a mobile port to begin with... so no

cluclap1346d ago

It wasn't a mobile port though? The team that made them did the mobile games but if I remember the actual remakes aren't the mobile versions.

andy851346d ago

Playing it at the moment. It actually looks pretty clean. I'm on PS5 though, can't comment for other versions. I guess the updates helped a bit

VersusDMC1346d ago

If you like assassins creed and Dragon Quest enjoy the multiple games.

Just plan on playing Medium and the Yakuza remasters right now.

EvertonFC1346d ago

"inside" indie game looks interesting for sure too

SlothLordPootus1346d ago

Inside is great. If youve played limbo it's very similar

dazzysima1346d ago

Seems the PS Plus offer is running out of steam already.

Have they even added any new trials since launch?

rob-GP1346d ago

Yes, loads - they just stupidly havn't updated the list on the console!

I can't recall of the top of my head but there's been a bunch of games, probably about 10 or so. I'm gonna drop Shu another email and try and get him to tell the UX team to update the list. It's annoying when they don't update things

VersusDMC1346d ago

I checked out the soulstice trial recently. And i heard they added dying light 2 so i might check that one out as well.

MrNinosan1346d ago

Running out of steam? This month is amazing, and the months before it has been great aswell.
At least 3 of the Dragon Quest games are great, Medium is okay, Assassins Creed is nice gems for those who missed put, Inside amazing, Castlevania superb, the Yakuza remakes are fantastic.

Lots of Trials has been added simce launch.
If you don't use the service or are interested enough to first check what's there, why comment?

Me being a Playstation guy and a huge JRPG fan, I can say that the only franchises I actually miss that are on Switch are The Fire Emblem series and The Xenoblade Chronicles series. I've played neither but I've heard good things. I've seen people play Xenoblade Chronicles games on youtube, and it seems like they think it's a big deal so I'm curious.

Rebel_Scum1364d ago

As someone who doesnt like jrpg’s that much these days I went into Xenoblade Chronicles blind and had a blast. Reminded me of that golden age of 16-bit and 32-bit jrpgs. If thats the era you liked then it should hit the spot.

jznrpg1364d ago

I only have a Switch for the games that don’t come on PlayStation . There aren’t a ton but there are some good ones.

repsahj1364d ago (Edited 1364d ago )

I agree with top 1, for me xenoblade chronicles 3(and 2) is one of the greatest jrpg to date. It's like the feeling of playing ff7 on ps1 for the first time again. Imagine if XC3 was done with ps5 graphics, that will be magical. I might get the xc remaster before the year ends or after I got the platinum trophy of GoW ragnarok.

jznrpg1364d ago

I didn’t care for 2 as much . It’s good but 3 is sooo much better than so is the first one imo .

repsahj1364d ago

yeah I agree, but much better than any recent jrpg releases.
