Dragon Quest X is coming to mobile, but so far only in Japan

Dragon Quest X Offline, a single-player version of the popular MMORPG, is launching on iOS and Android in Japan tomorrow! Japanese players can purchase the offline version at a discounted price, enjoying the game's unique real-time combat and other MMORPG features on mobile.

This mobile release marks a significant event, especially considering a previous attempt to bring Dragon Quest X to mobile in 2013. The offline version, initially released for consoles and PC in 2022, offers a compelling experience for fans who may have missed the original 2012 release.

A Japan-Only Affair (For Now)?

Unfortunately, there's currently no news regarding a global release of Dragon Quest X Offline. While a worldwide launch isn't impossible, the original game's Japan-exclusive status makes a mobile global release uncertain. This is disappointing news for many international fans, including this writer, who'd love to experience this unique entry in the Dragon Quest franchise on a mobile device.
