Fans of the iconic Dragon Quest series have something exciting to look forward to, at least if they're in Japan. Dragon Quest X, an entry in the series that leaned heavily into MMORPG elements, is making its way to mobile devices. Starting tomorrow, Japanese fans can dive into Dragon Quest X Offline, a standalone version of the game tailored for single-player experiences, available for iOS and Android. And the best part? It comes with a special discounted price for those eager to explore this offline adventure.

As reported by Gematsu, this mobile release follows the offline version's debut on consoles and PC in 2022, which itself came a decade after the original Dragon Quest X launched in 2012. Dragon Quest X stands out in the series with its real-time combat and other MMORPG features, a departure from the traditional gameplay fans are used to. Interestingly, back in 2013, Ubitu had plans to bring Dragon Quest X to mobile, a project that never came to fruition.

Here be dragons

Unfortunately, for fans outside Japan, a global release doesn't seem to be on the horizon just yet. The original Dragon Quest X was exclusive to Japan, and while it's not impossible for the offline version to eventually reach international shores, there's currently no news on that front. As a dedicated Dragon Quest enthusiast, particularly fond of "Sentinels of the Starry Sky," the prospect of experiencing another facet of the series on mobile is tantalizing.
