The '''titan belt''' is a recurring accessory in the {{DQSeries}} which first appeared in the [[Super Famicom]] version of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]''. In its original appearance, it gave a boost to the wearer's [[Resilience]], but in later games in the series, it increases the wearer's [[Attack]] instead.

==Localization history==
The Japanese name パワーベルト (power belt) was first localized into English in 2005 as the titan belt for the international release of {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. The term would then be replaced in 2014 with the [[weightlifter's belt]] for the Android/iOS port of {{Dragon Quest III}} before reverting back to the titan belt name for {{Dragon Quest Heroes}} and retaining it hence forth for subsequent games. As it stands now the weightlifter's belt name only appears in iterations of ''Dragon Quest III''.

* In international versions of the game, the belt is named after the [[Wikipedia:Titans|Titans]] from Greek mythology.

In modern English, it has come to mean something or someone of very large stature or greatness.
