Square Enix has announced that Dragon Quest Builders 2 has shipped over one million units sold, including physical and digital releases. In Minecraft fashion, the developers celebrated by building a custom thank you model of the Dragon Quest hero.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 is the co-op friendly sequel that combines the colorful monster-filled RPG of Dragon Quest with the block-powered building world of Minecraft. The player washes up on a mysterious island, meets a foreboding young man named Malroth, and must battle back against destructive forces, evil cults, and monsters while rebuilding the island village.

The final DLC pack, the Modernist Pack, is now available for purchase ($9.99). The pack includes the largest collection of crafting recipes yet, with the theme of modern-looking buildings and clothing. The DLC is part of the Season Pass, which includes two other crafting packs, for a total of $20.99.

Arriving later this month on Tuesday, August 20th, Dragon Quest Builders 2 will receive its final free content update, which will add the ability to create multiple save files, as well as an all-new epilogue to the end of the story.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 rated E10+. It’s available for PlayStation 4 and Switch.
