The classic RPG "Dragon Quest VIII" is headed for release on smartphones this winter. And one Android-powered smartphone in particular is going to be more than ready. NTT Docomo is releasing a Sharp smartphone embellished with Dragon Quest motifs. Limited to 30,000, the phones also come with Dragon Quest VIII pre-installed, and the handset's 5-inch high-definition display will ensure the game should be crystal clear when running.
"Dragon Quest VIII" was originally released in Japan on PlayStation 2 in 2004. It was a smash hit and one of the best received "Dragon Quest" games. Some have even called it one of the greatest video games of all time. NTT Docomo are banking on that popularity with it's new smartphone, which goes on sale Dec. 7. The price has yet to be announced.
