PlayStation Undergound Plays Some Dragon Quest XI

Sony released a new video for its PlayStation Underground video series, showcasing gameplay for Square Enix’s upcoming Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age. In the video, the host is joined by Neil and Sam from Square Enix and the three provide commentary of around seventeen minutes of gameplay including exploration and combat (which includes some minor spoilers from the beginning of the game).

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age will be released for PlayStation 4 and PC (via Steam) in North America and Europe on September 4, 2018. The game’s Nintendo 3DS version is not being localised, with a planned Nintendo Switch version not yet having a release date in Japan. The western version of Dragon Quest XI will feature some additions not in the original Japanese release, including English voice acting; Draconian Quest mode, a hard mode offering extra challenges; overhauled menus and UI elements; camera mode; and a new dash function as well as improved camera movement.
