Square Enix has announced Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime as part of it's North American Summer Line-up. Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime lets you play as Rocket, a slime hailing from Boingburg that has been tasked with the mission to save his fellow slimes from the hands of a mysterious cartel called "the Plob". He must rescue more than 100 unique slimes, from which he can select a crack team of warriors to aid him in the heated tank battles.

To survive the monsters in the puzzle-filled levels, you must customize your slime and his abilities, as well as improve the tanks by equipping them with new weapons and items. You'll even be able to use alchemy to create rarer and even stronger ammunition. The DS’s dual-screen technology allows you to view the menus and the action simultaneously during adventure sections, and gives a unique view both inside and outside the tanks during battle sections.

If you're not satisfied with fighting battle alone, you can compete against your friends in Wireless DS Multi-Card action for up to four players. The DS Single-Card Download play feature also allows up to 16 players to enjoy the game at once.

Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime will be in stores across America this summer.
