New Stories for Each Party Member
Dragon Quest XI S adds on a bunch of content like new quests and costumes, as well as the fact that your party members now follow you around the world.
However, the port also comes with a hefty dose of new story content on top of that. The big focus is that each and every party member gets a lengthy new story segment that focuses entirely on them, giving more context into their background and personalities.
These segments will let you take control of the part member directly, and even gives them their own unique party to help out. For example, in the part where you control Erik you get a handy Healslime to join you for the ride.
Dragon Quest XI was already an RPG packed with story content, but the Switch version has even more to dig into. Even better, the game now has a dedicated photo mode, so you can snap some pictures of your favorite characters.
