One title which seems to be taking its time is Dragon Quest XI S for the Nintendo Switch. The PlayStation 4 version was released earlier this year but Square Enix have remained quiet about the Nintendo Switch version, until today that is. Dragon Quest XI S will be released in Japan in 2019 and includes optional Japanese voice-overs. There will also be some sort of surprise for the Nintendo fans. Here is the voice cast:
- Erik (voiced by Kouki Uchiyama)
- Veronica (voiced by Maaya Uchida)
- Serena (voiced by Sora Amamiya)
- Sylvando (voiced by Masaya Onosaka)
- Rab (voiced by Mugihito)
- Jade (voiced by Ami Koshimizu)

I might just import this, not risking another international release with an awfully arranged soundtrack.
Japanese version had the midi arrangements too mate. You can’t really escape a rotten composer taking advantage of an incompetent company.
You can’t blame the composer for not getting paid an orchestra!
Oh, there’s an orchestral version of every single track in the game. He just submitted the MIDI arrangements for the actual game so people would have to attend his concerts and purchase his music separately for the real versions.
Nah man, the composer for Dragon Quest is a complete scumbag on many levels, I have no problem bashing him for DQXI’s awful soundtrack.
“awfully arranged soundtrack.” this is such a grossly hyperbolic overstatement. the international release is fine.
This is neat. I have the PS4 version so this might be a skip if there isn’t enough new here, but still pretty cool to see the fabled switch version actually exists.
there’s a new ending
Eh, this game keeps going and going, so I don’t think I’ve even seen the original ending.
Have they specified whether it’s a new ending to the long ass main game or the long ass post game?
Or is it like DQ8, where “ending” = video game wife?
I may hold off on putting to many more hours into the PS4 version, as an RPG is so much more enjoyable when you can play from anywhere – even when that’s predominantly couch, bed, and grinding during household chores.
That’s the Switch’s purpose!
Things should be released at the same time, and what’s worse… they also hided the actual release date. Will then moan if it will sell poorly…
“hided”?
Somehow, I get the feeling that this isn’t going to end well.
Wasn’t this the second game announced for the NX? Right after Breath of the Wild?
Yup. It’s been in development hell. I think Square Enix expected NX to be more capable than the other consoles, so when they got the dev kit and it was closer to 1/10th as capable, it became a bit of an issue..
My friend and I are translating the 3ds version, due to it having the 2d and 3d options it’s nice the version for the switch is happening but im only really interested in the 3ds version, splatoon and tales of vesperia.
