About Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen is a role-playing game with adventure elements for the Nintendo DS, released on November 22, 2007. It is set in a fantasy version of the Dragon Quest world and is the fourth entry in the series. ArtePiazza, Square Enix Product Development Division 9, and Cattle Call developed it. Square Enix published it.

The story is told in separate chapters, each centered on a different character. Players move through a 3D world shown across both screens of the handheld, and the monsters have been redrawn with animation. The chapters follow a soldier, a princess, a merchant, two sisters, and finally the hero, whose path leads toward a larger quest to save the world. The game is played from a bird's-eye, isometric view and is designed for a single player.

The game is rated E10+ by the ESRB. Its English version uses a fresh translation with thirteen dialects. A Chance Encounter mode lets players grow a town over a local wireless link. The English release leaves out the Party Chat feature.
