   With just one Dragon Quest game left on the horizon, it should be high time for Square Enix to reveal what the next chapter in their long running role-playing series will be. That is, other than Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors for the Wii, which is currently set for release during 2007. An official announcement may be coming as soon as tomorrow, if reports about various Japanese newspapers are to trusted.

   One such report comes from 1UP, who are still wondering whether the next Dragon Quest will be part of the main series, or just a spin-off title.
"In Japanese newspapers this weekend, eager readers spotted a calendar entry for Square Enix this week - an announcement of a new Dragon Quest game this Tuesday in Tokyo, to be specific. The wording leads us to believe the game is an all new game, rather than new details on anything they've already announced, so what could it be?"    What most fans are hoping for is naturally Dragon Quest IX, which might just be the series' first incarnation on the PlayStation 3. Square Enix is already working on a couple of PS3 projects (Final Fantasy XIII Final Fantasy Versus XIII), so the technology is already there, we assume.

   But 1UP thinks that the timing is all wrong for this kind of huge announcement, and that a spin-off game - or even a remake - would be far more likely to be announced. Well, guess we'll find out soon enough.
