Recruit and command various monsters to fight for you.

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is coming to the Nintendo Switch on December 1, 2023. This upcoming game will let players recruit and command various types of monsters to accompany them on a grand new adventure.

In Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, players will become familiar with Psaro, a demon prince that has been stricken with a curse that prevents him from harming monsters. I'm not sure how this qualifies as a "curse" but I digress. As a result of this curse, Psaro becomes a Monster Wrangler, a legally distinct designation that finds him recruiting and fighting alongside various monsters in the world of Nadiria.

Over the course of this adventure, the seasons will regularly cycle through Spring, Summer, Winter, and Fall, which not only changes the landscape, but also opens new areas and players will encounter different monsters specific to that season.

One of the most powerful tools in the player arsenal is the newly evolved synthesis system which allows players to create completely new monsters by combining those already on their roster. Players can experiment and eventually unlock over 500 monsters, including franchise favourites, dark lords, and completely new creatures. Once players have assembled their dream roster, they can take their teams of powerful monsters online, to battle against other Monster Wranglers around the world.
