Some of the online options involve being actually present and around other people virtually. The Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince online multiplayer Friend Matches, Ranked Matches, and Multiplayer Tournaments all fall into these categories. The two match options are one-on-one and involve either facing people registered as friends or strangers at similar rankings. The tournaments involve eight friends or strangers fighting together. 

The Quickfire Contest works a bit differently. This taps into data collected by Square Enix. It compiles 30 players’ monster information to immediately run a contest to give you rewards based on your stats and their analysis. This option is limited, however. While the other online opportunities can happen multiple times, you can only take part in Quickfire Contest once every day with your team of characters.

As for the online shop, it involves using virtual currency you earn by playing. However, every day what it sells will change. It has no real-cash items in it.

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince will come to the Nintendo Switch on December 1, 2023. A demo is available now.
