'''This is the <u>recommended</u> way to get started. If you do not own a Japanese Square Enix account, you must create a new one. Your global Square Enix account is <u>not the same</u> as a Japanese account and <u>will not work</u> for Dragon Quest X! You also cannot re-use your global Square Enix account e-mail address and must use a new, unique one.'''

Create a Japanese Square Enix account by going to the official site [https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/svc/dqxTrialtop here]. The bottom option on this page is to create a new account. Do not falsify any information on this page in the event you need to perform an account recovery. If you are unfamiliar with the Japanese language, using something like Google Translate, which is built-in to Chrome, or a [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/to-google-translate/ Google Translate] extension in Firefox will significantly help you with both this registration process and any future resources you might visit while playing. On the right is a Google translated version of the account creation page. Click the image to enlarge it.
If you decide to register for an account after creating a character with "Easy Play", click the blue button in the above screenshot (スクウェア · エニックス アカウント 新規 登録). This will open up your browser with a single "OK" button. Click it and fill out your new account details.▼
Once created, the Dragon Quest X free trial will be registered to your new account. We can now head to the Dragon Quest X launcher.

In the launcher, you will want to add your new account. You do this by clicking the wide, tan button on the bottom left. You will be presented with a [Step 1] and [Step 2] option (seen to the left). You have already done step 1, which was to create the account, so we can just straight to step 2. Enter the login credentials you previously created and click the green button at the bottom to add the account. This will add your account to the left pane at the very top, allowing you to select the account and enter your login credentials each time to log in.

====Easy Play====
'''This method is <u>not recommended</u>, but is still being covered for completeness.'''
Easy Play is a way to play the game without creating a Japanese Square Enix account. Instead, a local save file is managed on your computer (this file exists at C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\DRAGON QUEST X). This save file will only work on the computer you created the Easy Play account on. In the event you reinstall Windows or delete the file, your Easy Play character is gone forever; there is no method of recovery. It's highly recommended to follow the [[#New Account|new account]] process instead.
To access Easy Play, open the Dragon Quest X launcher and select the second option (Easy Play) and click the big red button. This will log you directly into the game where you are able to create a new Easy Play character.
