In the footage released today, the narrator described the game as so:
The last mainline title released in the beloved Dragon Quest series was 2017’s entry, Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age, which launched on PS4, Nintendo 3DS, PC, Switch, and Xbox One. The Japanese company is currently still working on the official follow-up, Dragon Quest XII: The Flames of Fate.
Monsters are perfect travel buddies for exploring this vast world. Bounce on a Slime to reach high ledges or dangle from a Draky to glide over gaping chasms. Support your monsters in battle as they fearlessly fend off foes. Bring back your hard-earned haul back to your base and see how much it’s worth. Collect more cities to expand your base and increase your treasure-hunting level.
Meanwhile, the last Dragon Quest spin-off released was 2020’s Dragon Quest Tact in the west and 2021’s Dragon Quest Keshi Keshi in Japan.

For more on Dragon Quest Treasures, here’s a trailer from earlier this year, plus an official description courtesy of a press release we received today:
Dragon Quest Treasures launches on Nintendo Switch on Dec. 9. 2022.
Players will take control of Erik and Mia as they explore a treasure hunter’s paradise where boundless adventure awaits. Loot can be hidden in the most fiendishly inaccessible locations, so players must recruit a variety of well-meaning monsters and make use of their unique treasure-hunting abilities. These charming creatures will help players to race over open fields, scale cliffs with a single bound, and glide over gaping chasms. They will even provide assistance in battles against rival treasure hunters! Collecting treasure will increase the player’s vault value, allowing them to expand their home base and further build up their brigade of friendly monsters.
