Today marks the 40th anniversary of the Dragon Quest series, and there are a few announcements for Switch and Switch 2 to celebrate.

• Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age will release a "definitive" Switch 2 version on September 24, adding graphics and performance options to the 2019 Switch domestic release. Notably, the game is NOT a Switch 2 edition so there appears to be no discounted upgrade, and the retail version will be a Game Key Card.
• A new Dragon Quest Monsters title ("The Withered World") based around Dragon Quest V will be released for Switch and Switch 2 "soon".
• Dragon Quest XII, previously known as "The Flames of Fate", has had a full development reboot and as a result now has the subtitle "Beyond Dreams". No platforms have been identified for the game, and there is still no release window.
