It has been three long years since Square Enix first announced their plans to remake Dragon Quest 3. The game was set to be revamped in the beloved Octopath Traveler’s HD-2D engine. Fans were thrilled at the prospect of experiencing this classic 1988 JRPG in a whole new light. However, as time passed, updates on the remake were scarce, leaving many wondering about the progress of the project.
Recently, on May 27th, which coincidentally is Dragon Quest Day, Square Enix finally provided an update on the highly anticipated remake. The news came in the form of a teaser video that showcased the outline of the Dragon Quest logo with the cryptic message “The legend of Erdrick draws near.” This teaser has sparked a wave of excitement among fans of the series who have been eagerly waiting for more information on the remake.
The teaser video, while not explicitly mentioning Dragon Quest 3, hints at a grander scale for the remake. Instead of focusing solely on the third installment of the series, the inclusion of “the legend of Erdrick” suggests that the remake could potentially encompass the entire trilogy that follows the legendary hero. This revelation has opened up a world of possibilities for fans, as it might mean experiencing the entire “Erdrick trilogy” in a completely new and updated format.
While the teaser trailer is certainly exciting, fans are advised to approach this news with caution. While it is confirmed that a Dragon Quest 3 remake is in the works, there is no official confirmation regarding the treatment of the other two games in the trilogy. As summer approaches and the gaming industry gears up for a season of announcements and reveals, there is a glimmer of hope that fans may be in for a pleasant surprise when it comes to the future of the Dragon Quest series.
The recent update on the Dragon Quest 3 remake has sparked a renewed sense of excitement among fans. The possibility of expanding the remake to include the entire Erdrick trilogy has opened up a world of possibilities for the beloved series. As fans eagerly await further updates and announcements from Square Enix, the future of the Dragon Quest franchise looks brighter than ever.
