Playing old school JRPGs can be time consuming due to the random battles, complicated dungeons and unpredictable distances between save points. The official X account for Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake<\/strong> recently put players\u2019 concerns to rest regarding whether they will have enough time to devote to the RPG, by highlighting a bunch of features that will make the remake easier for busy people to play when it comes out next month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A concerned user recently asked the Japanese Dragon Quest promotional account on X whether they will be able to play the RPG remake in small chunks as they are too busy for long gaming sessions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dragon<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In their reply<\/a>, the Dragon Quest X account assured the user that Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake will come with multiple options to help time-stretched players. This includes the option to speed up battles. The developers have also made it so that you can increase your character\u2019s running speed so that you can move through the world map, towns and dungeons even faster. On the other hand, those who want an authentic experience can ignore these options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For players who are worried about being able to save their game – Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake will increase the number of save points, as well introducing an autosave function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These time-saving elements are not the only improvements in the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake. The game will also have three difficulty settings,<\/a> extra story elements, bosses and environments. There will also be some kind of surprise<\/a> awaiting players at the end of Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D remake if they play the revamped trilogy in chronological order.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is scheduled to launch on November 14 for the PC (Microsoft Store), Nintendo Switch<\/a>, PS5<\/a> and Xbox Series X|S<\/a>. The Steam version<\/a> will come out a day later, on November 15.           <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
