After what has probably been the best year ever for Japanese role-playing games, you'd think the fun would be over after the release of Metaphor: ReFantazio - but no. There are still highly interesting games waiting for us in this extremely time-consuming genre, which will make our already huge backlog even bigger.
One of the most interesting upcoming projects is Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, the name of which gives it away very well. The original was released in 1988 for the NES, but now it comes in a heavily updated version with several gameplay improvements, but still built with two-dimensional graphics.
This allows us to relive the adventure (or experience the classic for the first time ever) as we might remember it through rose-tinted nostalgia glasses, rather than how it actually was.
The adventure looks super cosy, and we now get to see this in a gameplay-packed Overview Trailer (Switch version) that shows everything Square Enix thinks we should know before the premiere on November 14 for PC, PlayStation, Switch and Xbox.
