Long-time fans of the Dragon Quest series are well-versed in the expansive universe of this iconic franchise, including its various spin-offs. However, one entry that may have flown under the radar for many is Dragon Quest X, which boasts MMORPG elements distinct from other titles in the series. Exciting news for Japanese fans: the offline version of Dragon Quest X is set to launch on mobile platforms, iOS and Android, tomorrow!
As reported by Gematsu, Japanese enthusiasts can now dive into Dragon Quest X Offline, a single-player adaptation of the game, available for a premium purchase on mobile devices. This offline version, which hit consoles and PC back in 2022, offers a unique experience with its real-time combat and other MMORPG features, setting it apart from traditional Dragon Quest games. Interestingly, Ubitu had plans to bring Dragon Quest X to mobile as far back as 2013, showcasing the long-standing interest in this title.

Unfortunately, fans outside Japan might need to temper their excitement. While a global release isn't entirely out of the question, the original Dragon Quest X was exclusive to Japan, and there's currently no solid news on an international rollout for the offline mobile version. It's a missed opportunity, especially for avid fans like myself who have spent countless hours immersed in titles like Sentinels of the Starry Sky and would relish the chance to explore another facet of the series on mobile.
While we wait and hope for Dragon Quest X Offline to reach a global audience, why not explore our list of the top 10 games we'd love to see make the leap to mobile on Android?
