It was a bit strange to me for a while that one of the more “Cult Classic” Dragon Quest spin-offs hadn’t come to PC yet. Dragon Quest Builders was well-received by a lot of people, so it was strange that after a positively reviewed sequel, no PC port appeared. Finally, after all this time it seems that the first game in the Dragon Quest Builders series will be coming to PC.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Dragon Quest Builders will be released on PC on February 13^th, 2023. It will come with all previous DLCs at no additional cost. Here is what the press release has to say about the upcoming launch.

“Today, SQUARE ENIX® announced that DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS™, the first game in the popular block-building role-playing series, is launching February 13 on PC via STEAM®. DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS originally launched on PlayStation®4 and the upcoming PC version will include upgraded crafting features and the “Terra Incognita” DLC at no additional cost.

A DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS + DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS 2 bundle is also available. Players who previously purchased DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS 2 on Steam can purchase DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS at a discounted price. Pre-orders are now available for the standalone game and the DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS + DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS 2 Bundle.

DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS is an immersive sandbox gaming experience that invites Builders to rebuild the ruined realm of Alefgard, gathering materials and crafting unique items with endless possibilities.

Additionally, the Steam version of DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS will also include upgraded crafting features and “Terra Incognita,” the content that was originally added in 2022 to the mobile version, where Builders can freely craft and play, now with nearly double the height of blocks that can be stacked on their creations.”

As a fan of the series, I’m a little confused as to why it took so long to bring Dragon Quest Builders to PC when Dragon Quest Builders 2 was already available. Regardless, fans can now enjoy both games and play the first game with all the enhancements available in the mobile version as well. It’d be a great Valentine’s gift for the Dragon Quest fan in your life.
