Level
The “level” of a character symbolizes his degree of expertise. When created, the character starts at level 1 and accumulates experience (see this term) to level up. The higher the level, the more powerful the character and has various skills.

The “S” of this ultimate edition did not therefore mean Switch, but Superior.
With regard to “Superior Graphics“, however, we will have to be content with a port of the Switch version, with all that that implies concessions. If we can bet on a display resolution a bit higher and constant than on the laptop of Nintendo, it will be necessary to do with simplified 3D models and textures of lower resolution, even compressed cinematics. The game also cut into various parameters, which bodes well for some interesting face-to-face comparison to compare all these little people. Maybe the players will gain in fluidity what they could lose in graphics quality?
Although the same visuals, including the unfortunate European illustration, are reused on all promotional materials, Square Enix do consider Dragon Quest XI S as a separate game and confirms, for example, that the achievements will not be pooled. The most relentless fans will therefore be able to platinum the game several times on condition of course to go back to the cash register. However, we can bet that the price, softened to 40 € (against 60 € excluding promo) will convince them to take the plunge, unless of course they do not have the Game Pass of Microsoft, which the game will also integrate upon release.
