Square Enix is planning two versions of Dragon Quest XI. There will be a home console release, plus the handheld version. Both games feature similar stories but are quite different in many aspects.

When Square Enix is ready to ship Dragon Quest XI, fans in Japan can rest easy knowing that the game will be available on both 3DS and PlayStation 4 on day one. This was confirmed by Square Enix’s Ryutaro Ichimura. Of course, we don’t know how things will play out with NX.

Square Enix finally announced Dragon Quest XI earlier today. That was most definitely good news, but fans want to know if the company has any plans to bring the game west.

Unfortunately, Square Enix doesn’t have much to say on that front at the moment. The publisher provided Eurogamer with the following statement:

“We don’t have a concrete plan at the moment. However, we will consider it as we’ve done in the past for other Dragon Quest titles. We don’t have further information to share at the moment.”

Dragon Quest XI seems to be heading to Japan next year. If the RPG were to come west, it probably wouldn’t come out until 2017.
