Dragon Quest Builders Gets Release Date On PS4, PS Vita
Dragon Quest Builders has gotten a release date for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, with the developers announcing that the game will be released on October 11. In Dragon Quest Builders you gather materials, craft items, and build everything you can imagine in a sandbox world packed with memorable characters and dangerous monsters. This is all set in a unique Dragon Quest story, so let’s quickly go over that story to get you all up to speed.
Generations ago, the realm of Alefgard was plunged into darkness by the terrible and treacherous Dragonlord, ruler of all monsters. Mankind was robbed of the power to build and forced to wander the ruins of their former home, scrounging and scavenging in the dust to survive. Now it’s up to you, a Legendary Builder chosen by the Goddess herself, to return the power of creation to the people and rebuild Alefgard. Only when the wonder of imagination has been returned will mankind be able to overthrow the evil Dragonlord once and for all.
The Day 1 edition comes with a voucher code to unlock three exclusive recipes for unique building materials which can be used in Terra Incognita (Free Build) Mode. The recipes are:
- Springtide Sprinkles Recipe — An item that allows you to transform trees into festive Cherry Blossoms and soil into comfortable straw floor blocks.
- Slimy Blocks Recipe — Allows you to craft delightful blocks adorned with cute blue Slimes (The blocks aren’t actually slimy but they are super cute)
- Gold Blocks Recipe — Allows you to show off your opulent side with blocks made of pure gold
You’ll have access to these recipes as soon as you start up Terra Incognita Mode (which is accessible after you complete the first chapter of the main story) but you’ll still need to gather the raw materials to craft the items — but you can make as much as you want so long as you have enough raw materials. Then you can build all sorts of amazing creations.
