Doki Monsters: Quest Switch Update Released

Developer Yanako RPGs has released an update for Nintendo Switch creature-collecting RPG Doki Monsters: Quest. The update brings the Switch version level with the updates released for the game’s PC version on Steam under the title Dokimon: Quest. The update includes optional monster perma-death, a six-monster roster cap, a difficulty slider, a rebuilt movement system, reworked battle elements, a battle speed toggle, a rewritten Japanese script, and more. The Nintendo Switch version is currently on sale for 69% off its regular $12.99 price until 11:59pm Pacific Time today, September 15, 2026.

Doki Monsters: Quest draws inspiration from Game Boy Color games. The game takes place in a world inhabited by creatures called Doki Monsters, which can be trained by humans and used as battle partners. Players take on the role of an individual who sets out to find their childhood friend. During their journey, they face off against rival trainers and evil corporations. The game features turn-based combat and open-world exploration, with over fifteen towns to visit and over 140 Doki Monsters to capture. It also lets players speed up battles and toggle retro color palettes. A sequel, Dokimon Quest: II, is currently in development.
