Summary

  • Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D remaster will launch on November 14, as announced during this month's Nintendo Direct.
  • Square Enix has also announced that remasters of the first two games are also in development, and will launch in 2025.

Square Enix has revealed that the Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D remaster that was announced back in 2021 is finally launching on November 14, but that the project will now invoꦛlve remasters of the first 2 games in the ❀series as well.

It's been a long time since we last got a new mainline 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Quest game, with Dragon Quest 11 launching all the way back in the sunny old days of 2017, and with no release date in sight for Dragon Quest 12 just yet, Square Enix has been releasing spinoffs to try and keep fans happy for now. On that front, Square Enix has finally shown off more of its Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D remake at Nintendo's big June Direct, and has also announced that Dragon Quest 1 and 2 are getting the same treatment.

We knew an announcement was imminent when Square Enix said more info on the game "draws near" at the end of last month, revealing Dragon Quest 3's platforms at the same time. It♑ seems as though that time is officially now though, as a new trailer for the title has revealed that the game will finally launch on November 14 later this year, along with some brand-new gameplay footage including a bunch of combat, some puzzle-solving, the overworld, and several different story sect♌ions.

Dragon Quest 1 And 2 Are Also Getting HD 2D Remasters

We also got confirmation that the first two games in the Dragon Quest series will also be getting HD 2D remasters, as was rumored earlier this month. While we didn't get any gameplay footage of these titles, we did get a vague release window of 2025, along with some comments from Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii that he'll be interested in seeing how players react to experiencing the games in chronological order, as Dragon Quest 3 is the first in the timeline.

Hopefully, all of these titles will give Square Enix a little more time to sort out some concrete information regarding Dragon Quest 12, which we somehow still only have a logo for right now. The last official update we had on development was the announcement that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网♍:lead producer 🌸Yu Miyake was recently shifted to the head of the publisher's mobile division, which isn't a great sign, but seems to be just some structural reorganization this time around.
