Dragon Quest Heroes for PS4 coming to North America, Europe this year

Take that all you naysayers who doubted Square Enix would ever release Dragon Quest Heroes outside of Japan.

This morning, on the eve of the Japanese release, the company officially revealed that the PS4 version of DQH will indeed be headed to North America and Europe sometime in 2015. Taking the Dragon Quest universe and mashing it up with Dynasty Warriors/Musou style gameplay, and then wrapping it up in an action RPG package complete with Akira Toriyama designs sounds pretty amazing. So needless to say, we’re excited.

Check out the details below along with some previously release Dragon Quest Heroes screens.
