Dragon Quest IX to hit the Stage at TGS

DS News from N4G | Dragon Quest IX

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Dragon Quest IX to hit the Stage at TGS

Dragon Quest IX has been quiet for some time now, the silence in the development proving painful for some and exciting for others - those who hoped development for the Nintendo DS would prove too difficult so that the game would shift back to a more traditional system.

It looks like that isn't the case, though, as Square-Enix will be holding a "Dragon Quest Special Stage Event" on 11th October between 1 and 2:30pm. At this event they're set to announce the latest news about DQIX, including the most anticipated information - a Japanese release date.

Dragon Quest IX actually coming out in 2008?

DS News from N4G | Dragon Quest IX

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Dragon Quest IX actually coming out in 2008?

Siliconera writes: "A game like Dragon Quest IX usually has a prelude of previews months before it launches. We haven't heard Square Enix or Level 5 say much about the game and supposedly it's coming out sometime this year. Square Enix's TGS 2008 page for Dragon Quest IX sticks the title with a 2008 release window and there aren't many months left in the year."

Bloomberg: Square Enix Advances After Cosmo Upgrades Game Maker

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Bloomberg: Square Enix Advances After Cosmo Upgrades Game Maker

Bloomberg writes: "Square Enix Co. rose in Tokyo trading after Cosmo Securities Co. lifted its rating on Japan's third- largest video-game maker to ''neutral plus.''

The shares added 60 yen, or 1.9 percent, to close at 3,210 yen on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, after advancing as much as 6 percent.

The company's Dragon Quest 9 title, released for the Nintendo DS portable game player in November, will produce 20 billion yen ($190 million) in revenue from 5 million units sold in Japan, Cosmo Securities analyst Takashi Oka wrote in a Japanese-language report dated yesterday.

''It's not surprising Dragon Quest 9 for the portable console sold twice as many units as a version for stationary game machines,'' Ota wrote."

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Dragon Quest IX coming this year, FF Agito XIII might be cancelled

Square Enix held a shareholders meeting two days ago which discussed the financial status of the company during fiscal year 2008. Game Watch have posted an article that gives us more in-depth details on what was said:

- Wada says Dragon Quest IX is coming this fiscal year, but the game still doesn't have a release date. He also said the DS is a great choice for the game, and thinks it may sell up to 10 million copies.

- Wada says that due to 3 billion yen in losses, the company has cancelled a "revolutionary mobile development". The project is rumored to be Final Fantasy Agito XIII or Parasite Eve 3.

Dragon Quest IX coming to the U.S. in November

DS News from N4G | Dragon Quest IX

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Dragon Quest IX coming to the U.S. in November

Destructoid Writes: When Square Enix announced that the Zenithia trilogy would be coming stateside, responses seemed mixed: among the shouts of joy were a few lonely curmudgeons wondering if a release date for Dragon Quest IX: Protectors of the Starry Sky had finally been announced. Disappointed, they returned to their humble caves to eat rats and poke at the ground with sticks.

Rumor: Dragon Quest IX ships November 20

DS - Dragon Quest IX - Rumor: Dragon Quest IX ships November 20

Known gaming website 1UP.com has posted an article about Dragon Quest IV's arrival to North America, but the most interesting part in it was actually about Dragon Quest IX. The final paragraph featured the following text:

"With all that Dragon Quest going around, you've got to wonder if Square Enix might not be risking a little Japanese RPG burnout by the time Dragon Quest IX: Protectors of the Starry Sky hits town on November 20."

It might be just pure speculation by the editor, but perhaps they know something we don't.
