Developers Koei Tecmo and Square Enix have teamed up to bring an action-RPG version of Dragon Quest to the PlayStation 4 in Japan, and Sony has just announced localization for the game in North America. Dragon Quest Heroes will pit the player against swarms of enemies and gigantic monsters on the field of battle. Koei Tecmo is also responsible for the Hyrule Warriors game and the Dynasty Warriors franchise, so expect similar scales of action combat. Dragon Quest's director Yuji Horii and it's composer Koichi Sugiyama were reportedly both heavily involved in the new project.

Dragon Quest Heroes will come out some time in 2015 in North America on the PlayStation 4. Hopefully this is part of a greater trend, as Square Enix's CEO has acknowledged that he is fully aware of the demand for Dragon Quest games in the West and promised more announcements in the future.
