The latest Nintendo Direct Showcase gave us a lot to stare, from Motorcycle Adventures Samus at Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is a confirmation that Stardew Valley gets some Nintendo Switch 2-Load updates. Sprinkled in the presentation, Dragon Quest VII: Re -image Certainly surprised, even if not for the right reasons. Do we love the return of the 25-year-old RPG, or is it worth it for players jumping into the modern modern portable Nintendo?
If you missed Nintendo Direct this week, you may not know that there are five more Nintendo Switch 2 Edition updates for the console. Among them are repairs for Super Mario Bros. Wonder and OptorBooked 2, but you may wonder if Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined joins the update list. Well, apart from the Square Enix gate, he gives us bad news, because the upcoming RPG will not offer any benefits to players jumping from the original Switch console.
In the case of games such as Stardew Valley or The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Nintendo offers updates that cost only USD 7.99. This is definitely better than prices that can be found in the case of modernization of the last PlayStation 5 games. Hidden on Dragon Quest VII: Wired FAQ sideSquare Enix says that “there is currently no planned or available update path. Buy your copy for any system in which you want to play it.”
To add an insult to injury, if you start playing the modern Switch game on the Nintendo conveyor, it’s better not to bank in moving the saving file. In addition, Square Enix confirms that “switch version 2 and switch version are treated as separate games, so write the data cannot be transmitted or shared.”
This is a disappointing function, considering that the main titles of Switch 2, such as Cyberpunk 2077, No Man’s Sky, and Star Wars Outlaws support the option to bring with each other – regardless of the platform you prefer to play on.
If you are wondering if playing in the Switch 1 version on Switch 2 gives way to all performance improvements, it will not be again. The developer adds that “it will work as on the Nintendo switch”, even if you start on a completely modern portable Nintendo. Bearing in mind these failures, are you still looking forward to Dragon Quest VII: Re -invented?
