Embark on an epic adventure with our comprehensive Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake walkthrough. Discover strategies, locations, and secrets to conquer every challenge.
Welcome to our Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake (2024) walkthrough guide. This guide is entirely written using the 2024 release of the game. With it you can expect a full walkthrough from beginning to end, strategies for all boss encounters, all Mini Medal locations, all Seeds locations, and much more.
Dragon Quest III is originally the game that REALLY put the series of Dragon Quest on the map. I have fond memories of this game because my dad bought it when it released and I played it a lot before moving countries. Sadly I didn't play the game every again until the game was re released on the Switch several years ago. I played it quite a bit but life got busy and I never managed to finish it.
That being said, it's crazy how I didn't play another Dragon Quest game until VIII came out for PS2, and I of course got it because I wanted that FFXII demo disc. Anyway, after falling in love with VIII, I've been a huge advocate of the series, falling in love with 5 on the DS and later on with 11, so much so that I bought it 3 times.
Anyway, a bit off course, but I am here to bring you a guide to a game that I have many fond memories of. The last game I played with my father before separating, and here I am, writing a guide for the remake.
Follow me, as we find out how the 3-game journey of Erdrick started, and how this first game (albeit it being the 3rd in the series) ends.
I wrote a full guide for both Dragon Quest 1 and Dragon Quest 2 HD-2D Remakes as well. They both take place after the events of this game so feel free to check them out once you're done with this game... if you haven't already that is!
