Item Description
Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince brought the monster-collecting spin-off series back in a big way on Nintendo Switch in December 2023. Developed by Tose and published by Square Enix, it is a prequel and side story to Dragon Quest IV, and you play as Psaro, that game's antagonist, here a half-human, half-monster prince bent on revenge against his father, Randolfo the Tyrant, ruler of Nadiria. Randolfo has cursed him so that he cannot harm monsters and cast him out, which makes mastering the art of recruiting all the more essential: Psaro becomes a Monster Wrangler, and his monster allies do the fighting for him.
The monster-collecting and synthesis system is deep, rewarding and genuinely absorbing. With over 500 monsters in total, synthesis combines creatures into new ones that carry their own innate talents as well as talents inherited from their parents, and other Monster Wranglers may even offer to synthesize with Psaro's monsters. Between hunting particular creatures, perfecting synthesis chains and pushing through the story, there is always something pulling the adventure forward.
For longtime Dragon Quest fans, the real hook is Psaro himself. In Dragon Quest IV he is Psaro the Manslayer, the brooding antagonist whose hatred of humanity shadows that game's final chapter; here you meet him long before that, an exiled prince with a score to settle, and watching him build his strength one recruited monster at a time gives the story a weight unusual for the Monsters series. It is a rare chance to see one of the franchise's most memorable villains from the inside.
The Switch version's vibrant environments shift through the seasons as you explore, and each change alters the landscape and which monsters appear, giving familiar areas new life. The art carries the signature Akira Toriyama charm that has defined Dragon Quest for decades, with monster designs ranging from adorably goofy to seriously formidable, and it was the last Dragon Quest game released during Toriyama's lifetime.

About the game
Journey into a fantastical world on a quest for revenge in DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Dark Prince. Psaro is cursed and is unable to harm anything with monster blood. Now, he must become a Monster Wrangler to create an army for battle. The hunt for high-ranked monsters takes Psaro through the ever-changing seasons of Nadiria and its unique environments, with rivers of bubbling lava, mysterious ancient ruins, and soaring towers of cake. Along the way, Psaro meets the kind-hearted elf, Rose, who joins his adventure to seek out ever-stronger monsters. The key to Psaro's success lies with synthesis: the ability to combine two monsters and create a stronger offspring. Each new creation brings Psaro one step closer to his goal of becoming the Master of Monsterkind.
