It was announced by Nintendo of Europe on Twitter earlier today. The free trial period opens from tomorrow until April 26, so it gives you a whole week to build to your heart’s content!
This sequel is a kind of sequel to Dragon Quest II, which follows Children of Hargon. This group that seeks revenge on Erdrick’s descendants and wants to eliminate all builders to prevent the world from being recreated. Your character mates with the Malroth memory loss – a rather large Dragon Quest II reference – to become better at building and prevent the kids from catching builders.

If you have an NSO subscription and live in Europe, we think this is definitely worth a try. In our review of the game from 2019, we gave Builders 2 high praise:
“Dragon Quest Builders 2 is a much more confident game than its predecessor, bravely expanding its concepts, solving many of its flaws, and providing an overall more robust adventure experience that fans will not want to miss.”
