As Dragon Quest is such the rave in Japan. It's no surprise they would make a spinoff to VII starring the portly bandit in his younger days....he really let himself go didn't he?

Dated in Japan...

Dragon Quest VIII spin-off dated for Japan
Dragon Quest: Shounen Yangus to Fushigi no Dungeon will be coming out in Japan on the same date as FFXI's new expansion disc.

Square Enix announced today that its PlayStation 2 Dragon Quest VIII spin-off, Dragon Quest: Shounen Yangus to Fushigi no Dungeon, will be released in Japan on April 20. The game will be priced at 7,140 yen ($62). The date may looks familiar to Square Enix fans--it's the same day that Final Fantasy XI's next expansion disc, Treasures of Aht Urhgan, hits stores.

Dragon Quest: Shounen Yangus to Fushigi no Dungeon follows DQVIII's Yangus through his childhood. Like previous releases in the Fushigi no Dungeon series, the game will feature randomly generated dungeon maps. Shounen Yangus to Fushigi no Dungeon has cartoonish 3D graphics, though it apparently uses a different graphic engine from Dragon Quest VIII. Trailers and screenshots can be checked out at the game's official site.

I really hope DQVIII did well enough here to justify a domestic release of this title..

I know it did well. It got huge ratings and was the best selling RPG since FFX I believe.

Not sure if that will be enough... but we can hope.

The game sold 500,00 copies in North America,which is huge for a RPG so this spin-off might come here as well.

I hope you are right Riel! I really do.

DQ8 is such an awesome game. And Yangus does have quite a bit of back story that can be played out. There's a lot of potential there.

I got beat down by Dhoulmagus at 40 hours in or so.. I guess I'll be spending another 10 hours leveling and upgrading my equipment. Be ready, he's tough.
