Dragon Quest Producer Steps Down Due To Repeated Delays Of Next Mainline Title – Report
The top producer of Square Enix’s Dragon Quest series, Yu Miyake, has reportedly stepped down due to repeated delays of the next entry, Dragon Quest XII.
According to Bloomberg, Miyake is reportedly transitioning over to Square Enix’s smartphone games department. Nier producer Yosuke Saito is also reportedly being strongly considered to take over the production of Dragon Quest.
