CCG writes - "Overall, I rather enjoyed this as a Dragon Quest fan, both of the main games and the Monsters sub-series. It did feel a little underbaked and was missing features from the Dragon Quest Joker games and 3DS remakes of the original 1 and 2, but it still has quite a lot of content regardless. Technically, it's fairly solid and worthy of its price, though I would hope they release an expansion version at a later date to add back features this game is missing from prior titles. If you love the series or are just a diehard for monster collection games like Pokémon, this title is more than a worthy purchase."
A new Square Enix March 2024 Switch eShop sale is up and running with the lowest prices ever for Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, Paranormasight, Star Ocean: The Second Story R, and more.
"SQUARE ENIX are today very proud and excited to share that "DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince", the latest role-playing game in the "DRAGON QUEST Monster" series, has officially shipped 1 million units globally since it’s successful launch exclusively for Nintendo Switch™, at retail and digitally via the Nintendo® eShop." - SQUARE ENIX.
Why make it Switch exclusive? Surely the sales would be higher if it also released on PS4/5 and Steam. Maybe not so high on Xbox but no reason to not release it there as well.
Murillo Zerbinatto writes: "I can only recommend Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince for the diehard fans of the monster-taming genre. Those who like Dragon Quest may appreciate the references to the fourth game, but those alone don’t sustain all the repetitiveness and an incredibly prosaic story. Now, if you are competitive and would like to test your mettle online, The Dark Prince offers the perfect battleground."
I'd love to be a due hard fan but it's only switch. Bring this sh over to ps5 square
