In case the 3DS didn’t have enough Dragon Quest games for you, Square Enix has announced one more: a remake of Dragon Quest VIII. Originally a PS2 game which received a Unity port for mobile devices, this port will receive some new features, like a new scenario, a new thief character named Garda and Morri a character from the arcade spin-off of Dragon Quest VIII, Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road. The port will have full voice-overs and an orchestrated soundtrack by the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphonic Orchestra. Dragon Quest VIII for the 3DS will arrive on August 27th. There’s been no news on a Western release, and given Square Enix’s recent misgivings about the success of Dragon Quest in the West, fans may not want to get too excited just yet.

I’m Guy Rainey. I’m a hardcore Nintendo fan, a PC enthusiast, and a Sony sympathizer. Also an amateur/aspiring game creator. I love any game that puts story as the main focus of the game, so that means JRPGs are my favorite genre almost by default.
