As part of the Nintendo Direct, we got a new look at the Dragon Quest 3 2D-HD remake. We also have a release date: November 14, 2024.
Were you betting on the original trilogy of Dragon Quest games getting a remake? Good news! The other two games are also getting remade, but they aren’t part of the same collection. Dragon Quest 1&2 2D-HD will be coming sometime in 2025.
I’m not sure there’s much else to say. It’s a remake of the third Dragon Quest game in Square’s 2D-HD style. It’s a foundational JRPG, so maybe play it if you haven’t before.
Honestly, Dragon Quest 3 was probably my least favorite of the four NES titles. I think it just felt really long and kind of drab. It’s still good, and I’ll definitely be getting the HD-2D remake. I’m just happy that the first two are also getting the treatment.
Dragon Quest 3: 2D-HD is coming to Switch on November 14, 2024. Dragon Quest 1& 2 2D-HD will arrive after in 2025.
