Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince to Release on New Platforms

Square Enix has revealed that last year’s Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince will be releasing on two new platforms after previously being exclusive to the Nintendo Switch.

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince will release for PC and mobile devices, specifically iOS and Android, on Wednesday, September 11. These versions come with all of the DLC that came with the Nintendo Switch Digital Deluxe Edition, which includes the following:

• The Mole Hole: In this special dungeon, scout monsters that have already been befriended once before. The Mole Hole provides ample opportunity to reunite easily with monsters that only appear during specific seasons or weather conditions, and even those that can only otherwise be obtained via synthesis.
• Coach Joe’s Dungeon Gym: Explore the randomly generated dungeons to battle legions of powerful monsters.
• Treasure Trunks: A mysterious treasure chest containing exciting rewards that can be opened once every hour allowing players to get their hands on some helpful items.

“Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince features Psaro, the demon prince, whose curse prevents him from harming monsters,” reads the game’s synopsis. “As a result, he must become a Monster Wrangler, recruiting, and fighting alongside monsters throughout the various environments of the fantastical world of Nadiria. Over the course of this adventure, the seasons will regularly cycle through Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter, which not only changes the landscape, but also opens new areas and players will encounter different monsters specific to that season.”
