Detailing an entire month of extra content, free no less, Dragon Quest Heroes II is clearly pointing out to us that it is here to stay…”but wait, there’s more!

Offering whole new side quests for every character, new maps and even more characters yet to come, the next four weeks are jam packed full of updates. The full list can be read in the press release below, and is well worth taking a look at. In these days of ludicrously priced, premium DLC costume packs, to find a game so heavily loaded, and so frequently, with free stuff is a rare trait indeed.

Square Enix and Omega Force’s Dragon Quest Heroes II is worth a look at for that alone, of course, it also helps that its pretty bloody awesome to boot.
