Dragon Quest series creator Yuji Horii has teased to expect an announcement for the series 35th anniversary in 2021. 

"Thank you very much for today," Horii said during the closing remarks at Dragon Quest X Fall Festival 2020 on October 30. "Next year, Dragon Quest will celebrate its 35th anniversary. I believe we will be able to make all sorts of announcements in regards to that. And there is still a whole lot of fun to look forward to in Astoltia [the world of Dragon Quest X]. Please continue to support Dragon Quest in the future. Thank you very much!"

We do know Dragon Quest XII is in development, however, in January 2020 Horii said the release of the game is "still a little while ahead." While a 2021 release is unlikely, it is very possible we will get a full announcement and trailer for the game next year. 

Thanks, Gematsu.

A DQ XII reveal next year seems very likely. I expect it'll launch in 2022 for every platform like they're doing now with DQ XI S.
