After being announced for the first time in 2021, with only one logo for another, Dragon Quest XII still remains silent while Square Enix has removed the franchise producer from his position.\r\nThe developer has not made much known over the years , if not some summary information and some nods to the fact that, if nothing else, Dragon Quest XII has not been canceled at least for now. Likewise, Yuji Hori, creator of the franchise, has repeatedly reassured fans that development was proceeding stably.\r\nPerhaps this is not exactly true, however, as reported by Bloomberg.\r\nYu Miyake, producer of Dragon Quest, would be was removed from his role due to the excessive delay accumulated in the development of the twelfth chapter.\r\nAs reported by the online magazine, Miyake would be moving to the smartphone games department of Square Enix. At the same time, the producer of Nier, Yosuke Saito, would be strongly taken into consideration to take over the position of producer of Dragon Quest.\r\nIndeed, the extreme silence that has existed from 2021 to today is too much even for simple confidentiality, and at at this point it is highly plausible that there were more important problems.\r\nNot to mention what happened to the most important figures linked to the Dragon Quest franchise (and beyond). In recent years we have in fact lost Koichi Sugiyama, legendary composer of the saga, not to mention Akira Toriyama who was fundamental in the creation of the identity of the saga, who passed away prematurely last month.\r\nThe situation is certainly not rosy for Square Enix and the Dragon Quest franchise, and the hope is that the change of producer can get the development of the twelfth chapter back on track.\r\nAmong the latest titles of the saga that have arrived in our area are Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince and Infinity Strash the Adventure of Dai, which we told you about on these pages.\r\nIf you want to take advantage of the opportunity to rediscover the entire franchise, on Amazon you can find the artbook of all the illustrations of Dragon Quest by Akira Toriyama at Best price.
