Dragon Quest Heroes PS4 gets a release date, new title, collector’s edition

Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree’s Woe and the Blight Below (yes, that’s the official title) for the PS4 finally has an official October 13th release date for North America along with news of a Day One and Collector’s Edition SKU.

Square Enix is definitely giving the “full-scale action RPG” a lot of marketing push with both a Day One Edition, which will be packaged with some bonus DLC, and a Slime Collector’s Edition, that will include exclusive DLC in addition to some neat physical items, such as a treasure chest-style box, a Slime Plushie, a Slime Key Chain and a Slime Lanyard.

Those willing to plunk down $99.99 for the CE can only do so at the official Square Enix online store, right here.

Take a look at the latest trailer below.
