The game is developed by Square Enix, and it has already become a phenomenon to players from all ages and backgrounds with more than 4.2 million units sold across Japan.
When starting for the first time, players will be able to create their own customized characters, deciding on how they look. While going deep in the story-line, players will become more powerful. This means that other characters that join their group will be able to be customized. Players will be also able to discover more than one thousand pieces of clothing, armor and weapons that will provide them with special abilities and exciting appearance. The class of the character can be also changed at any time.
The player will begin their adventure as a city guarding who is sent in order to retrieve a sacred tree’s fruits in Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies. This fruit has the power to grant wishes. Players will encounter mighty opponents in fast-paced battle during their journey.
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies features special game-modes that will let players share their adventures with others. The game supports up to four players through local wireless connection. With “Tag Mode”, the information about characters can be transmitted wirelessly to others.
Players who are looking for some variety of different activities can complete the special side quests, which can be earned by progressing through the game or by downloading them via a broadband Internet connection. Some downloadable quests will stick to the story-line, but others will just offer standalone missions.
