Dragon Quest X dated for Japan
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
After being announced over three years ago, Square Enix has finally nailed down a Japanese release date for Dragon Quest X. The company has shared an August 2 launch with a ¥6,980 price point for the software itself and an ¥8,980 price point for a USB Memory card bundle. A 16 GB SD card and Internet connection are required to play Dragon Quest X.
Dragon Quest X will ship with two discs on Wii. Square Enix has also confirmed a variety of service charge options. ¥1,000, ¥1,950 or ¥2,900 prices will be available for 30, 60 and 90 days of play respectively. Players can make payments with either Wii Points or with a credit card. Up to three characters can be created.
Although Dragon Quest X does require payment, every copy of the title comes with 20 days of free play time. Additionally, a number of “Kids Times” are planned for free play. These events don’t have a particular age limit, though Square Enix has already told consumers that they’re intended for children.
Don’t forget that there’s also a Wii U version of Dragon Quest X in the works. Obviously the new console won’t be out in August, so the Wii/Wii U versions will be shipping on different dates. Square Enix hasn’t provided any new details about the Wii U version of the game.
