Square Enix’s announcement of the Dragon Quest 3 remake in the Octopath Traveler’s HD-2D engine three years ago certainly caught the attention of fans. However, the recent teaser has raised some interesting questions about the scope of this remake.
On May 27th, known as Dragon Quest Day, Square Enix traditionally makes announcements related to the beloved franchise. This year was no exception, with a teaser video hinting at more than just a simple remake of Dragon Quest 3.
The teaser video showcased the Dragon Quest logo alongside the phrase “The legend of Erdrick draws near.” While initially thought to be specific to Dragon Quest 3, eagle-eyed fans have noted that the teaser may actually hint at something grander – the inclusion of the entire Erdrick trilogy.
Interestingly, the teaser did not explicitly mention Dragon Quest 3 and instead focused on the overarching series. With phrases like “The legacy begins,” there is a suggestion that the remake may encompass more than just the third installment of the series.
While it is important to approach this information with caution, the possibility of an expanded remake encompassing the entire Erdrick trilogy has sparked excitement among fans. As we await further official announcements, the potential for a more comprehensive retelling of this legendary tale is certainly enticing.
The recent teaser for the Dragon Quest 3 remake has left fans with more questions than answers. The hint at a possible expansion to include the entire Erdrick trilogy adds a new layer of intrigue to this highly anticipated project. As fans eagerly await more information, the possibilities for what this expanded remake could entail are both exciting and promising.
