Japan's multi-million selling RPG series finally makes its European debut.

Despite selling over 35 million units worldwide, Square Enix's Dragon Quest series has
never made the journey over to European shores - until now. Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of
the Cursed King is the latest instalment of the incredibly popular series, and the first to be
created for PlayStation 2.

Fans of Dragon Ball Z will be pleased to learn that the series' creator Akira Toriyama is on
character design duties and, thanks to some excellent cel-shading, they all look as if
they've been lifted straight out of an anime. The gorgeous visuals, combined with the
classic Dragon Quest gameplay, will make for the finest, most epic instalment of the series
yet.

• The first instalment of the immensely popular RPG series to reach Europe
• Features character design from Dragon Ball Z creator Akira Toriyama
