A while ago we told you about Quest of Dungeons, a turn-based dungeon crawler that utilises procedurally generated environments. It has permadeath, too, so that when you die you start again with a new hero - yep, with a retro look it offers a retro-style level of challenge. The Xbox One version's trailer is below.
It seems promising, and as reported in our original article it'll feature four character classes, boss battles, leaderboards and three difficulty settings. Developer Upfall Studios has now shared the news with us that this title isn't too far off release - the Wii U version has a fixed release date of 1st September in Europe, with a final date pending in North America; this version supports off-TV GamePad play or the Pro Controller. The 3DS version is currently going through Lotcheck, too, so there's no date yet.
It'll cost €8.99 in Europe, and the great news is that this title will support cross-buy - if you buy either version (Wii U or 3DS) you'll get the other for free.
In addition the 3DS version is now confirmed to have StreetPass support; the idea is that if you pass others you may come across the ghost of one of their failed attempts, which you can try to kill and loot.
Are you interested in this one? Let us know in the comments.

OOOOOoooOooOooOoOOOHHH!
yes this seems really cool!
Rogue-likes can be so much fun. Sort of burnt out on them because smart phones have dozens and quite a few clever ones, but this looks nice enough and the attention to street pass is commendable.
Love the cross buy, too. And because all stories must be NX related now 100% of new Nintendo games may be better than cross buy because the portable and the console may be one in the same.
Looks fun, but why no animation for attacks? I don't get it, it bothers me. #ocd
Really, REALLY, hyped for this!!! Day one buy for me.
Also the Xbox One and PC versions are really good, so I can only assume this is not a simple port, as the developer is top notch!
This looks really cool. Have to give this a try when it comes out here.
Deffo buying for the 3ds, crossbuy just makes it even more a great buy.
I remember the controversy around these art assets back in the day. The Devs that made em was showing of this cool game, but then they decide to license their assets (characters at least) to other devs, which churns out a bunch of games before the original devs even finish their own game.. problem was that once their own game came out, it was just regarded as a ripoff of the current games out there since they shared the same assets.
Lesson learned, never share your own assets untill your own game is actually out first.
Portuguese devs!!!
I'll support it for sure
We've been waiting a while for this one. Day-one purchase!
@Arngrim That's funny, I was wondering why there were a few games with the same sprites. I think there was another game like that, Hack Slash Loot maybe? Maybe not?
I have this on PC, but haven't tried yet. Would be nice to have some more handheld Roguelikes.
This actually looks amazing. I just hope the "humor" is either trailer-only or very minimal in-game.
Looking for something to play on my 3ds this looks good has anybody played any version of this yet?
