But those versions look like shit. And this will probably get a physical release tooThis HD-2D remake is so boring to me. I don't love the look and the games are already available everywhere. Should've been 4 onwards. But we all know they just want to milk III's Japanese success
I think it’s more likely that 4/5/6 already had decent DS remakes, and while III is available as a remaster, when choosing to remake one they settled on one that hadn’t already been remade.This HD-2D remake is so boring to me.

Well, it has been, actually. The SNES remake that the dodgy remaster is based on is still one of the best-looking games in the series. Every Dragon Quest game before VIII has been remade at least once.I think it’s more likely that 4/5/6 already had decent DS remakes, and while III is available as a remaster, when choosing to remake one they settled on one that hadn’t already been remade.
It seems to be vague and up to interpretation.So despite what I saw a YouTube creator say today, it doesn't seem like 1, 2, & 3 are getting packaged together, right? Just 3?
Thanks! I'll keep waiting I guessIt seems to be vague and up to interpretation.
Feel like we should revive this thread. Here’s the recently released trailer for Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, releasing November 14th, 2024:
Here’s the boxart for the Switch version:
Dragon Quest I&II were also confirmed to be getting HD-2D Remakes in 2025 in the latest Nintendo Direct.
Early impressions of the game from people who played it at SGF are out (can’t find all of them, sorry)
So how we feeling?
thank you again for doing this ST — I can't think of a more perfect shepherd for the franchise on our humble boards!I apologize for not updating the thread, I haven't been at my desk and don't want to do it on my phone.
Goes without saying I'm very excited for this and the trailer makes me emotional every time I watch it. It is utter excitement mixed with somber melancholy as I look at the beautiful cover art, the first Toriyama wasn't able to do. This franchise is entering a new era and I can't help but be excited for the future while also looking to the past with a tinge of sadness.
Thank you for the kind words and checking out the thread!thank you again for doing this ST — I can't think of a more perfect shepherd for the franchise on our humble boards!
the new trailer is thrilling and bittersweet all the same. I look forward to jumping into the series more fully when this beautiful rendition of III drops.
I initially came here to post "wait wtf I thought DQ stood for Donkey Qong" but your heartfelt post totally capsized the shitpost ship and left me on an earnest little lifeboat
thank you
Looking forward to it! You'll do a great job I'm sure, who could better than you for this game!!I'm really excited, the main issue was I had a very bad week at the job. But yeah, this weekend I'm hitting the pen and working on the draft of the ST.
