It was hardly the information dump that many people had been after, however hey, not less than it was one thing (let’s not overlook that this challenge was initially introduced by Sq. Enix means again in Could 2021). Nicely, now Horii is again with one other replace, and this one feels slightly extra promising.
Plainly improvement on the much-anticipated HD-2D remake has certainly been progressing nicely, because the collection creator introduced that he not too long ago stayed up late working by way of a playtest of the sport.
After all, playtesting could be a somewhat lengthy course of so that is on no account an endorsement that Dragon Quest III can be returning to our screens in a matter of weeks, however it’s an thrilling improvement all the identical.
