Now, the legend is set to return in HD-2D graphical engine with numerous quality-of-life improvements such as autosave, the ability to speed up battles, three difficulty settings, two different camera modes, minimaps, and an NPC conversation log. On the other hand, much will remain faithful to the original, including an overworld map where towns appear as miniatures, random encounters with monsters, different classes for party members called vocations, and the option to choose between a male or female protagonist.

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is scheduled to launch as a simultaneous worldwide release on November 14, 2024. It will be available for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Microsoft Store. In addition to the features mentioned earlier, the remake will have new scenes that add greater depth to the world, directly supervised by Yuji Horii, the series creator, and some scenes will feature voice acting. Plus, the game's entire soundtrack will receive an orchestral version.
