Dragon Quest III HD-2D to Feature New Story Episodes; New Screenshots Released
Dragon Quest III HD-2D is going to feature additional content not found in any other version of the game, including some story episodes focused on a specific character.
Ortega, the protagonist's father, will be the main character of these additional episodes, which will shed more light on him to give players a better understanding of his character and his quest to defeat the Archfiend Baramos, which led to his demise when he fell into the maw of a volcano.
