The Steam page for the PC version is up as well with our first look at some technical details. Here are the official Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake system requirements.

The developers have shared the target resolution, framerate, and preset as well. This isn’t a demanding game at all, and if you want to play at the highest settings at 1080p with a 60 FPS target, you only need a GTX 1060 paired with a Ryzen 3 1200.
These are fairly old components now, and most PC users should easily enjoy the remake at framerate.
Apart from that, you need 20 GB of free space to install Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake, and 8 GB of RAM is recommended.
