Well deserved. One of my favorite JRPGs ever made. I guess this definitely means we're getting the new DQ Monsters game as well, can't wait.

I had DQ VIII for PS2 and enjoyed it. I have DQ XI for Switch, but had no time to play it yet. But it looks as beautiful as ever.

I have the switch version yet to play. It looks like a great game and I love all the extras in the switch one. I wonder what the definitive version has sold? I'd be shocked if it's not over a million.

I'm not a fan and this was my first DQ but I can say that it is a beautiful looking game, I enjoyed almost every moment. Keep going.
