What it is
Dragon Quest Treasures is an action role-playing game from Square Enix, set in Draconia, a land filled with monsters and valuable loot. Erik and his sister Mia arrive there after meeting the otherworldly Porcus and Purrsula, and set out to find the legendary Dragonstones while gathering treasure. They establish a gang and a base of operations as rival treasure-hunting crews pose a threat. The treasure they bring back increases the value of their vault; reaching certain value thresholds raises the gang’s rank, unlocking abilities for treasure hunts and additional base amenities. The game is single-player on Windows. Its Steam features include achievements, trading cards, Steam Cloud, full controller support, customizable volume controls, and options for keyboard-only play and saving at any time. Square Enix developed and published the game. It is listed as released in 2022, with a Steam release date of July 14, 2023.
