Square Enix’s Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake has received extensive new gameplay footage showcasing one of the side quests. As players arrive in Norvik village, they must find and return the Dreamstone to the fairies to lift a curse. This takes the party across the region to the Underground Lake – check it out below.
Combat is showcased throughout and harkens back to old-school Dragon Quest, down to the perspective on attacks. Of course, the remake offers more than just revamped visuals (which still look gorgeous, especially in the Underground Lake with its real-time lighting and shadows). In combat, players can alter the battle speed, opting for Fast and Ultra-Fast alongside Normal speed.
Those who prefer an indirect approach can assign different Tactics to party members, from conserving MP to going all-out with their attacks. If you want full control, select “Follow Orders.” It’s a nice approach to auto-battling that affords different degrees of control.
Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake launches on November 14th for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC, having gone gold last month. Head here for more details on new features like the Monster Arenas.
