Dragon Quest Builders was first released in Japan in Jan. 2016 for PlayStation 3, PS Vita and PS4. The game can be described as a mesh between RPG elements from the 30-year-old franchise and building mechanics from games like Minecraft.

Recently, Square Enix released a trailer for the Japanese version of the Switch port, featuring exclusive Switch items and a new rideable companion called the Great Sabrecat. Unlike its initial release, the Switch port will launch ahead of its Japanese debut in March.

Check out the trailer below:

The sequel, Dragon Quest Builders 2, will be coming to PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Currently, a release date has yet to be announced.

New features in the sequel include sloping platforms, the ability to create waterfalls and underwater diving. Additionally, it will feature four-person multiplayer and faster traveling time via the new hang glider.

Stay tuned for more information leading up to the game’s launch.
