Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake: How To Access Pre-Order Bonus DLC

by Mikhail Madnani on 14 November, 2024

Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake for consoles and PC (Steam) includes a pre-order bonus in the West and also has certain retailer-specific bonuses in Japan going by the in-game wording and listings here, but you don't have access to this immediately or automatically. In fact, you might even completely miss this DLC if you don't open a specific chest early on. If you pre-ordered digitally or redeemed your code included with the physical pre-order, this will cover what you need to know.

What is the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake pre-order bonus

The Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake pre-order bonus is a free trouble-free travel kit in-game for the Western release. This includes the following items:

One pair of elevating shoes
Three seeds of strength
Three seeds of defence
Three seeds of agility
Three seeds of life
Three seeds of magic

These items can also be obtained by playing through the game. The pre-order bonus is available as a code in the game's physical release or one sent by a retailer depending on your region.

After starting a new game, going through the personality test by answering questions, and then speaking to the King after a few cut-scenes, and gaining control of your character once again, you are told to go to Patty's Party Planning Place to recruit adventurers. The chest next to the bar counter in Patty's Party Planning Place has the pre-order bonus and other DLC items you have redeemed on your platform of choice.
