Press release:
LONDON (27th September 2019) – Square Enix Ltd., announced today that the first three games in the beloved “DRAGON QUEST” RPG series are now available for Nintendo Switch™ system, for the first time on console in Europe.

The releases are perfect for long-time fans, as well as newer players looking to experience a slice of gaming history with these influential classics. Each game in the legendary Erdrick trilogy can be purchased separately as a digital download from the Nintendo eShop.

In the iconic DRAGON QUEST series, players embody a hero and embark on a quest to save the world, exploring environments and dungeons filled with monsters and magic.

Upon release in 1986, the pivotal series became a cultural phenomenon, accumulating a large, passionate fan base of millions worldwide, and set the standard for the JRPG genre.

The three-part saga begins with an epic journey as the “Hero,” a legendary descendent of Erdrick, through the enchanting realm of Alefgard. A century later, in DRAGON QUEST II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line™, players will work as a young prince of Midenhall as he sets out with his cousins — two additional descendants of Erdrick — to defeat an evil wizard named Hargon.

The third title of the Erdrick saga, DRAGON QUEST III: The Seeds of Salvation®, has players travel through the land of Aliahan, where a young hero embarks on a quest to save the world from the wickedly evil Demon Lord, Baramos.

DRAGON QUEST, DRAGON QUEST II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line and DRAGON QUEST III: The Seeds of Salvation are available to purchase separately for the Nintendo Switch™ system from the Nintendo eShop now. For more information, visit: https://dragonquest.square-enix-games.com/
