Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake is more than just a graphical overhaul. It retains the original's gameplay and adds many welcome quality of life features.

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.
