Sony’s got dibs on almost 10 minutes of PS5 footage from the upcoming Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake. To be fair, for those of you who’ve been following the game, there’ll be few surprises here: it’s the NES original, presented in the Japanese publisher’s stunning new engine.
You get a tasty mix of high-resolution sprites and modern 3D graphics, which makes for a really unique look – albeit one that’s fairly commonplace now, in the aftermath of Octopath Traveler and other re-releases like Live A Live.
This gameplay includes some overworld exploration and a handful of battles. Remember, perhaps confusingly, a bundled remake of Dragon Quest 1 & 2, presented in this same HD-2D style, will follow in 2025.
