But where’s Yangus?
We just got our first look at the new characters to appear in Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twin Kings and the Prophecy’s Enda few days ago. According to a page from the latest issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, it seems Dragon Quest Heroes II will be getting a heap of new characters from previousgames in the series as well.
The image features Torneko and Meena (Maya’s sister) from Dragon Quest IV, Carver from Dragon Quest VI, Gabo and Maribel from Dragon Quest VII, and Angelo from Dragon Quest VIII.
It also looks like Alena, Kiryl, Maya, Terry, and Jessica will be returning. I’m pretty bummed Yangus is nowhere to be seen, though. He’s the best! It’s also a little strange that both Bianca and Nera are gone, leaving no one to represent Dragon Quest V. Here’s hoping they will be available as secret bonus characters or something, kind of like the extra character from the first Dragon Quest Heroes.
