Back in May, Square Enix revealed Dragon Quest Treasures, a new spin-off game in the Dragon Quest series where players recruit and command monsters in search of hidden treasure.
Since then, the game’s official Japanese website has been updated with some new information about the game, including the game’s story, world, and main characters Erik and Mia.
