Square Enix announces a new Dragon Quest for phones — trailer lands tomorrow

Square Enix has announced a new Dragon Quest game for phones. Dragon Quest RPG: The Cursed Tree and the Chosen Isle is in development for iOS and Android, and the publisher describes it as the next adventure in the long-running series. The announcement arrived on Monday through Square Enix’s official channels, with a trailer premiere listing on YouTube and a new official website. It is a command-based RPG built for smartphones, in the turn-based style the series is known for. The full announcement trailer premieres on Tuesday, 10 November, at 11:00 UTC — 6:00 a.m. in New York and 8:00 p.m. in Tokyo — in English, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese. Beyond that, Square Enix has said almost nothing: no release date, no price, and no word on whether it will be free or paid. The last mobile entry, Dragon Quest Smash/Grow, launched in April.
