Eight unlisted videos appeared on Square Enix's Dragon Quest YouTube playlist ahead of the DQ Day stream on May 27, signaling possible announcements at the series' 40th anniversary event.
The uploads have fueled expectations for a substantive Dragon Quest 12 update, after the game was announced at the 35th anniversary event in 2021 and has seen little official news since.
Fans are also watching for other reveals, including current-gen ports of Dragon Quest 11 and another remake following the success of Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined.
The teaser activity comes as Square Enix uses DQ Day to spotlight one of its longest-running JRPG franchises, making the anniversary stream a focal point for the series' next slate.
After five years of silence, will Dragon Quest 12's reveal show a darker, more mature direction for the series?
Will the new Dragon Quest titles be confirmed as killer apps for the recently launched Nintendo Switch 2 console?
Are HD-2D remakes of classic titles now Square Enix's main strategy for the future of the Dragon Quest franchise?
