New Dragon Quest IV scans from V-Jump

It’s not surprising if you have no idea how much of a phenomenon Dragon Quest is in Japan; it’s even forgivable if you haven’t heard of the classic RPG franchise that our fellow gamers over the land of the rising sun worship. Now that Square Enix has decided to remake three DQ titles of old for the Nintendo DS, there’s no excuse not to at least take a look at what the buzz is all about. With that said, here are some fresh Dragon Quest IV scans from Japanese magazine V-Jump.

Those who’ve been keeping tabs on Square Enix‘ trifecta of revivals would find some of the shots familiar, but we reckon they’re still be enjoyable to look at. The pages are packed with information for those who can recognize Japanese characters.

What we can figure is how Squeenix’ sticking close to the roots of DQ IV. Environments still look exciting and green, populated with classic DQ folks that are now in 3D. Combat seems like it’ll still be old school, having enemies on your screen while commands are right below them.
