Dragon Quest XI is out now in Japan but will also be releasing next year in the West under the name “Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age”.

@onesiphorus: if only the Switch version is released....

^This :(

That's a strong number. I'm glad they decided to localize this game. I'd like to give it a try.

Not surprised. Dragon Quest has always sold well in Japan and is more popular then even Final Fantasy there.

Great sales.

We better get the 3DS version in the west, in addition to the PS4 version.

3DS outsells the PS4 version. Graphics are overrated.

Shoo, go buy your Amiibo DLC.

Nice start for the game, I'm guessing it'll clear 3M with some ease between both versions. Money in the bank already. Whatever they get from the west is just a bonus at this point.

Oh, I will. AND HOW.

Not surprised. I thought it would sell more than that considering the game released on two platforms.

Yup, japan loves Dragon Quest.

yes this launch is actually worse than dragon quest 9

Hope western version has more content since we gotta wait until 2018 ._.

That was a pretty big one.

The Japanese love these types of games and its selling on two of the most popular platforms out there. I'll be getting into the game once it releases over here, as I haven't played a DQ game in forever. Btw, any reviews?
