The Nintendo Switch exclusive, Dragon Quest Treasures, is now available and it received decent review scores from a number of websites. In an interview with Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu, Dragon Quest Treasures producer Taichi Inuzuka, reassured fans that while Dragon Quest Treasures took some inspiration from Dragon Quest Monsters, the long-running Monsters series isn’t going anywhere. Mr. Inuzuka went on to say that he considers Dragon Quest Treasures more akin to a new game like Dragon Quest Builders and Dragon Quest Heroes.
So this game isn’t an evolution of Dragon Quest Monsters, but a spin-off?
“It’s not really a spin-off either. It might be closer to DQ Heroes or DQ Builders as a completely new game. But, the release of this game doesn’t mean the end of the DQ Monsters series, so please don’t worry.”
