ForbesOllie BarderSep 201810/10While it is a massive and overly traditional role-playing game, do not let these elements dissuade you from trying it out. Stick with it and your patience will be hugely rewarded.

Attack of the FanboyJelani JamesAug 20185/5 starsDragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age takes everything to love about classic JRPGs and refines them to their utmost. The result? Absolute brilliance. If you had to pick just one JRPG to own on a modern platform, then let it this be the one.

PlayStation UniverseGarri BagdasarovAug 201810/10An incredible achievement, and even after 150 hours in we didn't want it to end. From an emotional story, simple yet engaging combat, and gorgeous visuals. Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age is simply remarkable and shouldn't be missed.

Kinglink ReviewsOct 20182/5It is the latest in a long history of Dragon Quest games, but sadly doesn't do enough with that long lineage. It should have been better, but doesn't reach that level of quality.
