Square Enix has revealed Dragon Quest RPG: The Cursed Tree and the Chosen Isle for iOS and Android, and its announcement trailer premieres on November 10, 2026 at 6:00 AM ET (3:00 AM PT). The publisher’s official YouTube listing calls it “the next adventure in the DRAGON QUEST series,” and so far that line is most of what Square Enix has said about it.
What Square Enix Has Confirmed
The listing gives us four things:
- The platforms. Its artwork carries an “iOS/Android” label, and no other platform is named.
- The trailer time. It premieres at 11:00 AM UTC, with a Japanese version on Square Enix’s Japanese channel and a Korean version on Square Enix Asia set for the same moment.
- The stage of development. Square Enix notes that all video and images shown are from content still in production.
- The credits. The copyright line names Armor Project, Bird Studio, and Square Enix, and the music is credited to Sugiyama Kobo. That line is standard for the series, so it does not tell us who is building this game.
The listing also has an “Official Website” link, but as of Monday morning it lands on Square Enix’s main games page, with no page for this game yet.
What Square Enix Has Not Said
Square Enix has not announced a price, a release date, or whether the game is free to play. It has not named a developer or described how the game plays, beyond the word “RPG” in its name. We also could not find an App Store or Google Play page for it, so there is nothing to pre-order or pre-register for that we can point to today.
What This Means for Players
There is nothing to do yet except set a reminder for the premiere, which is the next official look at the game. It lands in the series’ 40th anniversary year, which has its own section on Square Enix’s Japanese Dragon Quest site.
If you are not a phone player, the rest of the series is easy to reach. Dragon Quest VII Reimagined made our lists of the best RPGs of 2026 and the best PC games of 2026. Dragon Quest XI S is on our best Switch 2 games of 2026, and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is on our best monster taming games.
