Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors is an upcoming role-playing game by Square Enix for Nintendo's Wii game console. The game is a spin-off from the Dragon Quest series, one of Square Enix's most popular franchises.
Based on various screenshots and videos released by gaming websites such as 1UP, Gamevideos.com and IGN, Dragon Quest Swords will utilize a Battle System reminiscent to those of First Person Shooter arcade games such as House of the Dead. However, instead of using a handgun, Dragon Quest Swords will rely on the use of a sword, a shield and magic, that can be controlled alternately with the Wii Remote. The direction of a sword slash is dependent on the direction you sway the Wii Remote. In order to defend yourself from incoming attacks, you also have to use the Wii Remote to activate a shield while holding the A button, that must block the exact location of an enemy's attack on the screen, or else risk getting damaged. To hit a distant foe, you have to use magic by targeting the enemy with the Wii Remote and pressing the B button. Magic only comes in one form, a ball of lightning directed towards a single enemy. The sword, shield and magic can be used for an infinite number of times.

On the battle screen, there exists two gauges; a HP Gauge and a Special Attack Gauge. Everytime you damage an enemy, the Special Attack Gauge begins to fill. Once the gauge is filled, you have the ability to unleash a special attack that damages all enemies on the screen. The special attack's damage can be increased by whirling the Wii Remote above your head as fast as you can. This fills a vertical meter on the right side of the screen that increases the damage of the special attack. The higher the meter is filled, the greater the damage of the special attack.

You can also access the menu screen while in battle by pressing the minus button. The menu screen brings up the Item selection and the View Stats selection. Under the Item selection, you can choose an item that you have to be used in battle, such as an elixir. Meanwhile, you can view your character's stats in the View Stats selection.
