Square Enix has revived the beloved *Dragon Quest Monsters* series on mobile with the release of *Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince*. Following its December 2023 launch on Nintendo Switch, this seventh installment in the franchise offers a fresh perspective on a familiar story.
Who Is the Dark Prince in Dragon Quest Monsters?
You play as Psaro, a young man burdened by a curse inflicted by his father, the Master of Monsterkind. This curse prevents him from harming any monster. To break the curse, Psaro embarks on a journey to become a Monster Wrangler, teaming up with various monsters to climb the ranks and ultimately challenge his father's authority. Longtime fans of *Dragon Quest IV* will recognize Psaro as the game's antagonist, but this mobile title offers a compelling look at his story from his own perspective.
The game unfolds in the magical world of Nadiria, where dynamic weather and changing seasons significantly impact gameplay. Recruit, train, and even fuse over 500 unique monsters to create powerful allies. The ever-changing weather patterns influence monster appearances, ensuring a consistently fresh and exciting exploration experience. From adorable creatures to bizarre behemoths, the monster roster is incredibly diverse.
