Dragon Quest I, Dragon Quest II, and Dragon Quest III for Switch Head West on September 27

Square Enix has announced a western release for the Switch ports of Dragon Quest, Dragon Quest II, and Dragon Quest III.

All three games, Dragon Quest, Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line, and Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation are coming to the hybrid console via the eShop day and date with the Japanese release on September 27th, for $4.99, $6.49, and $12.49, respectively.


A physical collection with all three games is coming via Playasia with English, Chinese, and Korean subtitles in October.

Here’s a rundown on the games:

Upon its release in 1986, the pivotal Dragon Quest series became a cultural phenomenon, accumulating a large, passionate fanbase of millions worldwide, and set the standard for the RPG genre. This modern collection of the classic titles features simple and intuitive controls that mimic retro gameplay, paying homage to where the legacy began.

The iconic Erdrick trilogy begins in the acclaimed Dragon Quest where players begin their voyage as the “Hero,” a descendant of the valiant hero Erdrick in an epic journey through the historic realm of Alefgard. Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line takes place a century later, where the young prince of Midenhall embarks on a journey to find the other two descendants of Erdrick in order to defeat the nefarious Hargon. The third and final title in the Erdrick trilogy, Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation, takes players through the land of Aliahan, where a young hero has been charged with an impossible task of slaying Baramos, the master of darkness.
