Dragon Quest XII: New Details to Emerge Gradually

By MilaFeb 23,2025

Dragon Quest XII remains under development, with updates to be revealed gradually, according to series creator Yuji Horii. During a recent livestream with his radio show group, KosoKoso Hōsō Kyoku, Horii confirmed that the Square Enix team is diligently working on the project.

This is the first substantial update since May 2024, following the announcements of the passing of Akira Toriyama and Koichi Sugiyama, key figures in the Dragon Quest franchise. The departure of lead producer Yu Miyake to head Square Enix's mobile game division had also preceded this.

Recent restructuring at Square Enix and a lull in news had sparked fan concerns about the game's status. However, Horii's statement allays these fears, assuring fans that Dragon Quest XII is actively in production.

The only visual currently available for Dragon Quest XII is its logo, unveiled in 2021.

Dragon Quest XII was announced as part of the franchise's 35th-anniversary commemoration and will be the first main series installment since 2017's Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age. Square Enix has since reported that Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake surpassed sales projections, achieving 2 million units sold.
