Support NeoGAF

[Stitch]

Saw it in the eShop, but it's launching September 18th on pretty much everything
Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch (why do we still get Switch 1 games?)

That's right, Puzzle Quest is returning with brand new content and all previous adventures combined into the must-have Puzzle Quest Immortal Edition.

Choose your character class, take on quests, battle enemies in match-3 gameplay, learn new spells and abilities and rebuild Etheria in the classic Puzzle Quest experience, now upgraded in the Immortal Edition with gameplay improvements, 4K artwork, an exclusive character class and 40+ new items to help players on their adventure.

EXCLUSIVE TO PUZZLE QUEST IMMORTAL EDITION

4K artwork (on supported platforms)
A brand-new character class
40+ new items to help players on their adventure
3 previously released expansions included adding new quests

Love the old game, but these are the type that will get on iPhone something I can sit on the toilet and play for five-10 minutes

 

[AJUMP23]

I enjoyed the old puzzle quest. Never went far with it.

 

[jshackles]

The only good Puzzle Quest game. This re-released a couple of years ago, so I guess it's time for them to milk it yet again.

 

[PauloRoberto]

Two amazing things:

- how the first puzzle quest is, and continues to be, EXCELENT
- how every other interaction of this game never achieved the same success

But only on Switch, now they're re-releasing it on everything.

Love puzzle quest, and have put hundreds, if not thousands of hours into it, playing multiple classes.

Why game companies take a winning formula, and trash it, will never make any sense to me. All puzzle quests after the first, are pure, unadulterated, garbage.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Not again please, this is worse than cocaine.

 

[Sinfulgore]

They need to release this on mobile.

 

[Esca]

I'm always down for my Puzzle Quest, hell yeah!

 

[xrnzaaas]

I'm getting it day1, have so many good memories playing the first Puzzle Quest (and also Galactrix to a lesser extent).

Plus it's not free to play or online, instead a normal paid singleplayer title.

 

[Labadal]

Thinking about that mother******* final boss gives me PTSD. Never in all my life have I experienced a game AI that cheats as much as this game. Still loved it, though.

$15 on Switch. Might as well. I had this for the PSP ages ago.

Wonder what the discount will be for people (like me) who have the Legend Returns version.

For players who want to enjoy the full Puzzle Quest experience, we will be launching Puzzle Quest: Immortal Edition later in 2025. If you already own Puzzle Quest: The Legend Returns then you will receive an exclusive discount for the game when it launches as a thank you for supporting Puzzle Quest in the past.

Hope it's a pretty steep discount, if so this'll be a no-brainer there. Will probably also double-dip on GOG, just to encourage the behavior.

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

While I think the quality of picross is overall higher, this is also one of those series I just always buy when a new version or update is released.

 

[touchfuzzy]

Nice to see there's a discount if you own The Legend Returns, pretty sure I bought it but really didn't play very much. If it's 50% or better I'll probably bite (but it'll probably be something lame like 20%)

 

[SpiceRacz]

First killer app on Switch 2.

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

I loved the OG ones. I'll get this for Steam Deck as long as there's no fucking ads and microtransactions.

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

I tried playing the original Puzzle Quest on Steam this year, and it's really, really rough on modern hardware. I'll definitely check this out.

Yeah it's super rough, and you can mod in the first expansion pack - assuming you have access to a hacked 360 that has the game files... which you can extract into the right directory in the PC version to upgrade it...

Yes, this will be a huge improvement over the original PC release.

 

[ReyBrujo]

Dang, I hope they add it to the Argentine eshop. The original for DS is one of my most played games, and one of the ones along Ouendan and Picross that scratched the hell out of my lower screen.

Ed: Oh, it is, cool. The previous version was never available for us. And it looks like they are using a nice font for mobile gaming, not sure how good the game is without the pen but hopefully it's just as good and addicting.

 

[Sunraku]

Nice, i was looking for a puzzle with rpg elements to fill the void that Might and Magic Clash of Heroes left in my heart

Will grab this for sure
