How does he keep his hair in place?

As if the returning faces in this Dragon Quest Heroes trailer weren’t enough, the whole thing reminds us of a PSone-era cut-scene. There’s something about the plain but pretty art style that whisks us back to the early era of polygons – and we mean that in the best possible way, because the title looks great.

It’s already selling well as far as we can tell, too, as a PlayStation 4 hardware bundle featuring a redeemable code for the release sold gangbusters in Japan earlier this month – despite the game not deploying until late February. Given the popularity of the property, that’s hardly a surprise – expect this to shift some serious units next year.
