 Welcome back everyone. Recently, Dragon Quest XI-S's Echoes of Elusive Age Definitive Edition was announced to be coming to Xbox One. This is the first time a Dragon Quest game has ever been on an Xbox console and it's going to be included with Xbox Game Pass. This is honestly very big as there are millions of people out there who will have immediate access to the game. We'll see a huge surge in fans this December when the game drops. Additionally, Dragon Quest XI-S is coming to PS4 and Steam as well for $40, making it cheaper than the Switch version which hasn't budged at all that much on the price. While this should be nothing but good news, a few troubling announcements were made alongside the announcement. You see, this is not the original game with just all of XI-S's content added. It's actually a port of the Switch version up for as with a higher frame rate. What this means is the graphical quality itself will be different looking than the original game. It won't be quite as detailed and the lighting won't look quite as good as the original 11 on PC. From what I've seen in the trailer, this is the case. It definitely looks different than the original game. A lot of people are angry about this, I'm noticing and this is a bit of a bummer. Honestly, the first thing I thought when the game was announced was that we'll finally have XI-S with quality graphics as the original XI looks so much better than the Switch version, especially the PC version with the settings all the way out. While it does suck that this is happening, there's still a lot of content in 11S to be had. The new version has the orchestral soundtrack, the 2D mode, the new story chapters, exclusive armor, party members following you and more. It has mostly everything from the Switch version. Now if it really is a direct port, that means the two features that were cut from the original release, being the targets and the first person camera, are probably not going to be in this version. Overall, if someone were to ask if I still recommend getting this version, I would still say yes. It's cheaper than the original, it actually still looks very good for a Switch port, and you can't beat the added content. Obviously, it doesn't look quite as good as the original, but I think the PC version of 11S would be a good bet because it may be possible to mod the graphics back to the way the original looks. It all depends on the size of the final game. I just hope Square Enix doesn't delist the original because that would be a huge shame honestly. The two games are very different and some people might want to revisit the original for whatever reason. I'm only worried because some devs stop selling the original game when they make an update. I think they should include the original like how Bethesda still sells the original Skyrim, although it is delisted and harder to find, it's still there. So please don't remove this game from your store. That would be a huge mistake. Other than that, Dragon Quest 11S come into consoles as a good thing, and it will allow more people to get into the series and experience the added content of the Switch version. I'm definitely looking forward to messing around with the PC version when it drops. Are you excited for Dragon Quest 11S? What console are you going to play it on? Let me know in the comments and I'll see you next time.
