Take that, you pile of slime

Square Enix has revealed today that it is set to release Dragon Quest X in Japan on 30th March.

Boasting the same content as the Wii release, the Wii U version has enhanced graphics and the option to play the game entirely on the Wii U GamePad. The MMO RPG will retail at 6,980 yen (that's around €55 / £48 / $75) and will include a ticket for 20 days of free online play.

Nintendo is set to release a Dragon Quest X hardware bundle featuring a premium Wii U console, the game, a black Pro Controller, a prepaid card worth 1,000 yen (€7 / £6 / $11) that can be used in the game and five super health orbs which help boost experience. The package will cost 42,000 yen (€334 / £292 / $453).

No news has come to light about the game getting a release in the West, and seeing as the Wii version hasn't had any word about being localized, it's hard to tell if it will journey outside of Japan.

What do you think — would you like to see a Dragon Quest X announcement for Europe and the US? We think we know the answer already, but let us know anyway.
