No mention of the Switch version isn't surprising considering that version has been MIA for a while, but I'm surprised that the 3DS version isn't getting localized.
Crying. Finally.
Edit: also crying at no 3DS version unless that's being saved for a Nintendo Reveal.

Okay the Switch version better be at E3 because it's getting ridiculous. It was the first NX title announced and we haven't seen a single screenshot.
Awesome, finally confirmation.
I haven't played a DQ game since VIII for PS2.
I guess the time has come :v
Man, my PS4 library keeps increasing :O

I've given up on the Switch version at this point. I guess I'll get it on PS4. This game looks so gorgeous, can't wait to see it on my TV. Does this have any Pro enhancements?
Press release, as expected it has voice acting

Please oh please tell me they added voice acting. Delay it to 2019 if must, seriously.
Edit: YES! Good work Square Enix! And Steam release too, fuck yes.
