Since its July release last year, Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies has sold over 4.15 million copies in Japan.
The game marks several firsts for the Dragon Quest series. It is the first to be launched first on a handheld system; it has no random encounters, where monsters accost players; and it is the first Dragon Quest game designed primarily to be played multiplayer.
The game is scheduled for a winter release.
