The hosts showed off the upcoming Switch version of Dragon Quest XI, including some of the new features such as new mounts, ultra-fast combat speed, symphonic soundtrack, Japanese voice option, outfit options, and the 2D mode that originally appeared in the Japan-only Nintendo 3DS version. 2D mode also lets players enter past Dragon Quest worlds and experience versions of certain chapters from past games.
