Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake Reviews
Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake masterfully modernizes two timeless RPGs with the gorgeous HD-2D art style. Significant story changes, wonderful quality-of-life improvements, and flawless performance on Nintendo Switch 2 make this a must-play game for any fan of the genre. Without a doubt, this is the definitive way to experience the Erdrick Trilogy for both newcomers and longtime fans alike.
Square Enix delivers a charming remake of two JRPG classics. The opulent pixel graphics and orchestral soundtrack breathe new life into the over 35-year-old games, while modern features such as fast travel, battle acceleration, and optional quest markers make the game mechanics more accessible. Despite the successful modernization, the simple good-versus-evil stories and repetitive grinding cannot hide the age of the games. For fans of the series and JRPG nostalgics, however, the remake is still highly recommended.
