Players can choose between different optimization modes, allowing them to prioritize graphics or performance.<\/p>\n<p>When going with Performance Priority Mode, Dragon Quest 11 S has a frame rate of 60 FPS and 1080 resolution. In Image Quality Priority Mode, it\u2019s 30 FPS at 1440p.<\/p>\n<p>Square Enix didn\u2019t touch on any differences when playing in docked and handheld modes. That said, the Nintendo Switch 2 screen maxes out at 1080p resolution.<\/p>\n<p>We also have another tidbit that many fans will find disappointing. Unfortunately, you can\u2019t transfer save data from the Nintendo Switch 1 release over to Switch 2. Given that this isn\u2019t a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, that\u2019s probably not too surprising.<\/p>\n<p>This also means that there won\u2019t be an upgrade path. If you purchased Dragon Quest 11 S on Nintendo Switch, you\u2019ll need to fork over another $40. Since there isn\u2019t any new content, we can\u2019t see this being an appealing option for most.<\/p>\n<p>Below is Square Enix\u2019s official overview of the RPG:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Know this! The Luminary is the root of all evil, and will bring naught but misery to our realm!<\/p>\n<p>The eleventh installment in the fabled Dragon Quest series, taking the tale of the legendary heroes right back to its origins, comes to Nintendo Switch 2!<\/p>\n<p>What does it mean to be a hero? A young lad from a country village sets out to find the answer to this question, embarking on an epic adventure that will lead him to uncover the secrets that lie at the heart of his world.<br \/>Dragon Quest 11 S: Echoes of an Elusive Age \u2013 Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 contains all of the content added in the original Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>New story chapters where the party members take centre stage.<\/li>\n<li>Japanese voices and additional English voices.<\/li>\n<li>The ability to switch between 3D and 2D mode.<\/li>\n<li>An orchestral score.<\/li>\n<li>This new edition for Nintendo Switch 2 also introduces new optimisation modes, allowing you to prioritise graphics or performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Contains:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The base game.<\/li>\n<li>Japanese and English voices.<\/li>\n<li>Super special item sets!\n<ul>\n<li>\u25e6 The Trodain Set (containing equipment that can change the hero\u2019s appearance)<\/li>\n<li>\u25e6 The Baby Boar Set (containing equipment that can change Veronica\u2019s appearance)<\/li>\n<li>\u25e6 The Happy Adventurer Set (containing five bottles of pep pop and five seeds of skill)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dragon Quest 11 S launches for Nintendo Switch 2 on September 24, 2026.
