Nintendo has shared two brand new videos to provide us with more information on the upcoming smartphone action RPG, Dragalia Lost.
It's quite easy to forget about Dragalia Lost with the constant stream of Switch news flying our way at the moment, but we're getting incredibly close to the mobile adventure's release date of 27th September. If you need a bit of a catch-up, this is a free-to-start action RPG set in a fantasy universe filled with warriors, magic and dragons. It naturally uses touchscreen controls, and players will be able to team up online with three others in co-op story quests, events and raid battles.
Now, though, we can finally learn a little more about the lore behind the game thanks to these two new video uploads. Make sure to check out both Part 1 and Part 2 below.
Forming bonds with dragons and the disturbance of nature thanks to technological advancements seem to be main areas of focus here, and the premise behind the game's world sounds like it could be fairly deep. Remember that the game's 27th September release date is only confirmed for the US, Japan, Macau, Taiwan, and Hong Kong - no information has yet been provided on a release in Europe.
If you're living in one of the regions mentioned above, will you be giving this one a go? Do you think Nintendo's next mobile game has potential? Let us know your thoughts on this one in the comments.

Looks good to me.
Would've been nice if actual gameplay was shown...
I wonder if the US launch includes Canada and Mexico?
@iLikeUrAttitude You can see gameplay videos previously - it looks very very slick. I guess somewhat it may depend on the performance of your Mobile device?
So question is, do you need an active internet connect to play single player?
it looks so generic
Never thought it would be Nintendo wasting this much time with Mobile games to pad their books.
And top it off, they just pumping the same generic mobile garbage.
I need to be nicer
Released two trailers but with no gameplay? Seems like they don't want us to be excited for this game if it even was a game cause if it was it would had been release for a dedicated game system instead of a freaking phone.
@jockmahon and Microsoft needs to de-Americanize itself and so does EA.
Wow... The humans in Dragalia Lost are kinda stupid, huh?
the multiplayer on the mobile direct hooked me. Can't wait to try if it's good with some friends.
This looks good and I hope it starts a series of Nintendo action RPGs on console. They put a lot of work into the history and it looks better than most phone games I've seen
In case anyone was wondering there is an official site. @ryancraddock should have added that.
The website actually shows the gameplay somewhat with a couple gifs and short explainations. Better than nothing I guess.

@hirokun The mobile direct seems a good resource. It goes over everything fairly comprehensively.
As for the game itself, it looks pretty similar to Ys. That's no bad thing, though on a personal level I'd have prefered turn based.

@Agramonte It's not like Nintendo is developing the game themselves. It's developed by an affiliate, Cygames.
@roboshort And how many times have we read about how Nintendo helps a 3rd party during development to bring something better to market? It has happened in every generation. Everyone thought they would shack up the Mobile space.
True. From what I've seen the hollow knight devs say, Nintendo was incredibly helpful. It has been echoed by others too. I think bad ports are really just down to them not having the budget, talent, or desire to make the port good. I mean hell, if we can get Doom on the Switch, there is really no excuse for games that are far less demanding.
My friends and I are really excited for this, but the only thing that bothers me is....are us in Europe actually going to get it at all? You'd think they'd say something along the lines of "Launches in the US in 27th, other regions at a later date" or something. I've seen so many good-looking mobile games that are only available in Japan and can't be played over here - so this is a point that's got me quite worried.
