Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional is an updated version of the 3DS game that launched in Japan earlier this year. Today, Square Enix shared information about some of the new features.
First, a drone has now been added to the Reactor device, which can freely explore the field. When activated, the player can stay still while the drone moves to explore far away places or even surprise monsters. Drones can reach places that not even rideable monsters can reach such as high places or small holes. It can also get balls of light floating in the air. Some rare treasure boxes can only be reached by exploring every corner. Drones can also startle enemies that may drop items when they flee.
In Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional, it’s possible to ride huge monsters. The difference with normal-sized monsters that you can ride is that the new kind has a special attack that can instantly wipe out weaker enemies.
Finally, there are special balls of light in the air. If the player touches them, the player and rideable monster will be encased in a special aura. With this, even small monsters can beat enemies with a ride attack.
