Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is the epitome of a new twist on an old classic. At its core, this HD-2D remake plays like an NES or SNES game with a fresh coat of paint. Yet, by the same token, it injects several new features and quality-of-life adjustments that will make this version of Dragon Quest III feel new for even longtime fans.

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.

It seems there are some notable differences with the box art and game cartridge. Once again, Japan gets the cool version - with a double-sided cover. The inside sleeve features some retro-style artwork of Dragon Quest III, while the US and European version appears to just be a white page loaded with legal text.
