The sequel, Monster Battle Road II also got positive reviews, and ended circulation on September 30th, 2010.

[edit] Gameplay
The game is based around battles with monsters from the Dragon Quest games. The battles take place in a coliseum and the monsters either can come from the game itself or cards the player can insert into the machine itself. The combat itself is very simple and only uses a two-button system.
The machine gives the player a free card at the beginning of a match. These cards can then be used in battle and if the player has one of the rarer cards, a special attack becomes available to be used in battle.
