Dragon Quest X Info Coming Soon

The Wii exclusive Dragon Quest X will have some info that will be unveiled on Jan 21, 2011 when the popular Japanese “V-Jump” will have their next issue in about two weeks hitting store shelves. Since its announcement in 2009, info on this game has been nearly non-existent and I’m hoping this game will be good since I’ve been hearing good things about DQIX on the DS, which came out last year.

There hasn’t been a price released for it yet, but until then, we’ll be flinging those birds on our phones.
