Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake Has Gone Gold

As a die-hard Dragon Quest fan who’s journeyed through the lands of Alefgard and beyond since the ’80s, I can hardly contain my excitement! The golden announcement of the Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake feels like a long-lost friend returning home. With its striking art style reminiscent of Octopath Traveler and Triangle Strategy, and the tantalizing prospect of the Monster Wrangler Vocation, this remake promises to be a delightful trip down memory lane with a modern twist.


The remake of Square Enix’s “Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D” has been finalized for release. This news was shared by the series’ official Twitter account, accompanied by an image of producer Masaaki Hayasaka and series creator Yuji Horii celebrating. It’s likely that the development teams at Team Asano and Artdink are still making adjustments for a patch to be released on the game’s launch day.

The remastered version of Dragon Quest 3, titled “Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake,” is a modern take on the 1988 role-playing game “Dragon Quest 3: The Seeds of Salvation.” In this updated adaptation, players assume the role of Erdrick as he embarks on a mission to vanquish Baramos, the archfiend. Key features include an enhanced art style reminiscent of “Octopath Traveler” and “Triangle Strategy,” revised user interface, customizable protagonist appearances, and a new character class called Monster Wrangler, which allows players to utilize monster abilities.

Starting on November 14th, you’ll have the opportunity to play the remastered version of Dragon Quest 3, titled “HD-2D Remake”. This game will be accessible on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC platforms. For a closer look at its gameplay, please click here.
