News: Square Enix will be delivering one of their Dragon Quest spin-off titles to Nintendo’s new console.

Dragon Quest Builders is coming to the Nintendo Switch in early 2018. Dragon Quest Builders offers a new experience in the classic Dragon Quest series, allowing players to reconstruct towns using gathered building materials, fight monsters in real-time battles and meet memorable characters throughout a sprawling RPG. And just like every game on Nintendo Switch, this constructive adventure can be played at home or on the go.

Dragon Quest Builders features a large world to explore, including hidden treasures to discover and epic structures to build. Players can use their creativity to fulfill characters' requests and build incredible towns using not only fun materials, but also their imaginations. In Terra Incognita - the game's free-build mode - players can even upload their creations online, or download buildings made by other players.

Playing Dragon Quest Builders on Nintendo Switch will offer players experiences and items exclusive to this version of the game. This includes the ability to gather rare crafting materials and battle enemies while riding the powerful (and adorable) Great Sabrecub, as well as additional crafting options for more robust building customization options.

Dragon Quest Builders will arrive on February 9 on the Switch. Will you be picking it up?
