During a press conference today, Square Enix announced Dragon Quest X Online, the first MMO title for the Wii as well as a first for the Dragon Quest series. What’s more is that it’ll be released on both the Wii and Nintendo’s upcoming Wii U console and will allow players on both to game with each other.
This will also be the first time that a Dragon Quest game will be developed internally by Square Enix instead of another studio.
Square Enix also revealed that there will be additional connectivity with the 3DS, possibly allowing players to transfer their characters to the 3DS for doing Spot Pass data exchanged while on the go.
DQX will be released sometime in 2012 with beta details being released soon.
