The story for the game is as follows: “After a thousand years of peace, the Seven Realms suddenly wage war as if guided by a mysterious force. Caught in the midst of this battle are Lazarel and his cousin Teresa, who set out to seek counsel from the Supreme Sovereign in hopes of restoring peace. Now, you must lead a band of powerful heroes in a quest to defeat evil and save the war-torn world!”
The original Dragon Quest Heroes was seen by many as a solid Dynasty Warriors-style game, using the Dragon Quest series’ personality to great effect. We loved the game when we reviewed it last year, which you can check out by clicking right here.
A new overview trailer for the game was also released, which you can check out below.
