WATCH: Nintendo Switch Dragon Quest Builders Launches Two New Gameplay Videos

Every week, the Nintendo Switch lineup continues to grow. From more third party support than ever before, to an evolving library of horror delight – there’s a lot to love about the hybrid console from the Big N. For those that like the more adorable side of the game experience, Dragon Quest Builders is making its Switch debut soon so let’s celebrate with a brand new trailer, plus more gameplay!

“Generations ago, the realm of Alefgard was plunged into darkness when the hero fated to slay the terrible and treacherous Dragon lord, the ruler of all monsters, was instead tricked into joining him. Through this vile villain’s magical machinations, mankind was scattered to the winds and robbed of the power to build. With even the idea of creativity relegated to mere legend, the people of Alefgard wander the ruins of their former home, scrounging and scavenging in the dust to survive. But now, a legendary figure arises – a hero chosen by the Goddess herself – who sets out to return the power of creation to the people of Alefgard. Only when the wonder of imagination has been returned to the land will mankind be able to overthrow the evil Dragon lord once and for all!”

  • Build a variety of unique tools from materials you gather, and rebuild towns and cities to restore life to the shattered world of Alefgard
  • An intuitive control system will have you building the towers and castles of your dreams in no time
  • Play your own way-an immersive Dragon Quest story and world to explore, combined with the freedom of sandbox gameplay, provides a new and exciting, family-friendly experience
  • Battle with famous monsters from the Dragon Quest series and interact with gorgeously designed 3D characters

Dragon Quest Builders for the Nintendo Switch will be releasing in Japan on March 1st, with western release details coming at a later time.
