Square Enix announced that it opened Android Google Play and iOS App Store pre-registration for its new mobile game Dragon Quest Smash/Grow. It also confirmed there will be a bonus for opting in ahead of launch and shared a trailer highlighting elements of the experience. While there’s no expected launch date yet, the App Store page launch window stated, “expected July 31, 2026.”
We first learned Dragon Quest Smash/Grow was on the way back in September 2025. A closed beta test even followed. This will be an action-RPG. Our hero will run forward toward the top of the screen, attacking hordes of enemies along the way. Once you build up to a Coup de Grace attack, you can “smash” with an AOE assault. You’ll also gather Blessings and growth crystals for roguelike elements that influence how the run will go.
As for the pre-registration incentive, those are Transmuter pulls. Square Enix will give enough for 10 of them. However, it didn’t explain how those will work and what they’ll entail.
Here’s the official pre-registration trailer. It shows both gameplay footage and some cinematics for this new Dragon Quest mobile game.
Dragon Quest Smash/Grow is in development, pre-registration is open, and it will be playable on Android and iOS mobile devices.
