The costume is obtainable by redeeming a download code included as a bonus of a certain book that is yet to be announced.

Lastly, Square Enix also announced that there will be an enhanced Draconian Quest in Dragon Quest XI S. Unlike the original version, the upcoming one will have a “Super Shypox” enabled, where all members of the party are inflicted with the “Shypox” spell.
