Square Enix has more news to share about Dragon Quest Treasures, and we now have details about the game’s treasure maps and dungeons, including details on the use of Teleportals and the monsters you will encounter in order to earn rewards.

Here’s the full rundown:

Treasure Maps Show the Way to Treasure Dungeons
With less than a month to go until the release of Dragon Quest Treasures, we’d like to tell you about the treasure maps you’ll pick up on your adventures and the treasure dungeons they’ll lead you to. The treasures you’ll find and the monsters you’ll encounter are different every time you enter a treasure dungeon – and there are special rewards if you make it out in one piece!
If you come across a teleportal while out exploring, summon up your courage and head on in!
Defeat the super-tough monsters that reside on a dungeon’s final level and you’ll earn treasure, medals and gold!
You might well come across some rather rare monsters, including ones with metallic bodies and others that sparkle extravagantly!
X Marks the Spot
In Dragon Quest Treasures, you’ll come across special items known as treasure maps. These will lead you to treasure dungeons where you can earn rewards, including treasure and medals. Simply head to the island indicated by the map and start searching for the entrance to the dungeon!
Enemy monsters will occasionally drop treasure maps when defeated!
Monster parties you’ve sent out on missions can also find treasure maps for you.
Find a treasure map and a special quest will begin! Check the menu to see which island the dungeon is on.
Search the island until you find the entrance to the dungeon – a swirling teleportal!
Treasure Dungeons Offer Rare Rewards
Treasure dungeons are formed of a series of separate rooms that you have to work through in sequence. The monsters you meet and the treasures you find there change with every visit to a dungeon. Defeat the enemies that stand in your way and grab your reward!
Defeat all the enemies in a room and the portal to the next one will appear.
Some rooms contain mysterious stone pillars. Touching these pillars will affect your entire party in a number of ways.
Powerful monsters await on the final level of each dungeon. Cooperate with your party to take them down!
Get the better of a treasure dungeon and you’ll earn treasures, medals and gold. There are rare medals available for those who can clear dungeons quickly!
At one point in the story, Erik and Mia will acquire a special treasure map. It shows the location of a treasure dungeon whose final level is a very special space, where a mysterious – and massive – monster awaits.
This giant boss monster has some very powerful moves! Use the environment to your advantage or unleash a special move to take it down!
