Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake may have beautiful, updated graphics, but the soul of this adventure is as old-school as ever. As one of the first tasks of your adventure, you’ll need to make your way over to Patty’s Party Planning Place to recruit three companions.

There are few role-playing games that are as important as 'Dragon Quest III', so this new remake has a lot to live up to.

For gamers young and old, returning to games made decades ago poses a unique challenge: to appreciate dated graphics and archaic gameplay with modern eyes. Square Enix took up this challenge by resurrecting the classic role-playing game Dragon Quest II for today's gamers — though its preserved mechanics may turn off some players used to conventional RPGs.
