Square Enix passed along word today that Dragon Quest Builders 2 is now available for the PlayStation 4. This sequel to the block-building RPG is a fresh, stand-alone experience. This game will offer some new features for longtime fans in addition to those who have never played the previous games.
If you are not sure if you'd even like the game, there is a free demo for Dragon Quest Builders 2 that you can try.
In Dragon Quest Builders 2, you assume the role of a young apprentice builder who ends up washed up on the Isle of Awakening. Next to you is Malroth, a "mysterious youth suffering from amnesia." Together, the both of you will explore different islands, develop skills, help townsfolk, craft items, and fight enemies.
This sequel adds in online multiplayer. You can now also create larger structures, travel by flight, swim, dash, farm crops, or even play in first-person mode.
