Latest Information
Rance Quest, technically "Rance VIII," continues sometime after the events of Sengoku Rance. Unlike the previous title, this is not a simulation game—instead, it is a role-playing game similar to Rance 6, but tweaked to include features from Sengoku Rance and Toushin Toshi 3. Based on teaser informations, parts of the story take place in the magic kingdom, Zeth, which explains the return of former Ice Flame members.

On May 20, 2011, a plot device was introduced to explain why formerly high-leveled characters, such as Uesugi Kenshin, begin at low levels. During the progress of this game, Rance will be cursed by Pastel Kalar, the Kalar queen, preventing him from H-ing women under "Level 35." Also, women he does manage to H will revert to "Level 1" due to the curse.

A trial version was released on May 27, 2011. Players may briefly read fourth-wall breaking conversations, explore the map, battle once, and submit survey reports to Alice Soft; the demo is mostly for players to test whether their systems can handle the 3D graphic-intensed game. On a related note, Rance Translation Project has released a fan translation of this demo.

Recommended System Requirements
Although not absolutely necessary, it is recommended to run the game on computers with DirectX 9.0c installed, and with at least the following: One should also have any sound card supporting "Wave Out Mix" and/or DirectSound. And any (128 MB) video card supporting 1024×768 display resolution, full-color, and Pixel Shader 2.0.
 * Operating System: Windows XP / Vista / 7
 * Central Processing Unit: Intel® Core™2 Duo
 * Random Access Memory: 1 GB

Trivia
The game's title and logo are acknowledged parodies of the Dragon Quest series. Although featuring elements from previous Alice Soft titles, its first-person perspective battles may subjectively be parodies too. Some fans even suspect the game's box art possibly references the Fire Emblem or Disgaea series.

''Note : Hello everyone! I just had an idea to translate all of the quest in English, therefore anyone who not use any text-hooker / translation program or anyone who still waiting for an English patch can also enjoy the story along the way you playing. But sorry that I have no confidence that I can join in the translation team since I will be very busy soon. So I will brief every important, funny dialogue and story here.''

''First I will start around this weekend (9 Sep 2011) and will be finish by 1-2 weeks. I will start with the main story quest which are 17-21 25 36 40 41 45 52-54 60 63-68 71-78 and I will translate it along my 2nd playthrough and line it up in the same order as the story (so it will not run in number). And when I finish the main quest, if you enjoy the way I translate it, I will continue with side story afterward.''

So, if you want to enjoy the story, please note that it will be a spoiler if you drag down too much to the quest you have not reached yet.

''If anyone have any comment, please leave it in the talk page. Thx very much!''
