Dragon Quest X started out as a Wii-only title, but that wasn’t always the plan. Series creator Yuji Horii mentioned during today’s Japanese Nintendo Direct that he’s been wanting to bring the MMORPG to the 3DS since the game’s earlier days of development.
By making Dragon Quest X for 3DS, Square Enix hopes to make the game more comfortable to play and attract new users. The handheld version of the game will have content up to the Ver. 2 major update.

Square Enix has been keen on putting Dragon Quest games on smartphones as of late. But with the series’ next entry, fans can rest easy knowing that it won’t be going the mobile route again.
Creator Yuji Horii, speaking with V Jump, confirmed that he wants to be “more aggressive” in making the next Dragon Quest and it’s not intended for smartphones. Given the franchise’s recent history, it might be safe to say that we’ll be seeing it on a Nintendo platform.

At Niconico Super Conference 3 in Chiba, Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii stated that Square Enix is “making the next” entry in the series. Horii is almost certainly referring to Dragon Quest XI.
Once Horii mentioned this, Dragon Quest X producer Yosuke Saito as well as chief planner Anzai Takashi looked as though they weren’t expecting him to say that. They were, in other words, indicating that Horii said something he shouldn’t have said. Oops?
