I covered the original review for Dragon Quest XI on the PlayStation 4 last year, and as you can tell by the review, I really, really dug the game. While not necessarily re-inventing the wheel when it comes to Dragon Quest games, it had been a good, long while since we had a console release for Dragon Quest, and it was a real treat to play through one again.
So, when it comes to the release of Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition for the Nintendo Switch, I won?t dwell on much regarding the base game. My thoughts and opinions from the first review haven?t really changed, and regardless of the additional bells and whistles present here, you should still absolutely give Dragon Quest XI a shot. That said, if you?re going to play Dragon Quest XI, they?re calling this one the Definitive Edition for a number of good reasons.
The other thing worth noting is that Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age performs really well on the Switch. I?ve played almost exclusively on a Nintendo Switch Lite, and even in 3D mode it holds up really well. Performance is solid, I never really noticed severe framerate issues, and load times feel in line with the PS4 version of the game if not better.
Note: Nintendo provided us with a Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition Switch code for review purposes.
