Dragon Quest I and II HD-2D Remake has no upgrade path or shared save data between Switch and Switch 2, Square Enix confirms.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "If there's one genre you can almost always rely on to put out at least a few solid titles each year it's the RPG genre. Whether it's CRPGs, WRPGs, JRPGs, ARPGs, or MMORPGs, there are a lot of subgenres with rich histories and confusing abbreviations, and each of them brings something worthwhile to the table. This year in particular was a bit of an interesting one since it had no brand new entries in the really long-running, genre-defining series like Final Fantasy or SoulsBorneRing to step in and steal the show. Instead, our shortlist consists mainly of much more unique titles within the genre, but they're certainly no less deserving for that."
VGChartz's Nicholas Taylor: "In summary, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake takes the original two Dragon Quest games from 1986 and 1987, respectively, and elevates them to new heights, while also making them just as accessible or non-accessible as you, the player, want them to be. But they're still Dragon Quest games. If that traditionally hasn't been your cup of tea, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake is unlikely to change that perception. For someone like me who loves Dragon Quest, though? This experience has been an absolute blast."
