In a surprise announcement, publisher Square Enix has just taken the wraps off the very first games for Nintendo's upcoming NX console. Dragon Quest X, along with its newly unveiled sequel Dragon Quest XI: In Search of the Departed Time, will be coming to the NX alongside the 3DS and PlayStation 4 in 2016.
While the NX version of the game got little more than a name-drop, Square Enix did reveal during its presentation in Japan (via Siliconera) that—unlike the online MMO Dragon Quest X—Dragon Quest XI will be a standalone single-player title. The PS4 version of the game is being developed in Unreal Engine 4, which suggests that Nintendo's next console will have the horsepower to drive Epic's new engine.
The 3DS version of the game is being developed with the help of Toy Logic, and won't be just a straight port. Instead, the game will run in full 3D on the top screen, while simultaneously displaying a retro 2D sprites version of the game on the bottom screen.
