Dragon Quest Monsters: The Withered World was newly revealed during the series’ 40th anniversary update, with child versions of Dragon Quest V’s Bianca and Nera shown as its apparent leads.
5 platforms were confirmed for the spin-off—Switch, Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC—broadening the series beyond its usual Nintendo focus.
The reveal offered no release date and did not explain how Bianca and Nera fit into the story, only hinting at a tie to Dragon Quest V through their younger designs.
Dragon Quest Monsters entries often reuse mainline characters, following recent spin-offs built around Dragon Quest XI’s Erik and Mia and Dragon Quest IV’s Psaro.
