We previously learned about Dragon Quest XI’s smithing system called the “Mysterious Forge,” and Square Enix has provided an update for it with new screenshots on the upcoming RPG’s official website.

 

The “Mysterious Forge” is a system that allows you to create equipment using your very own hands. You can use it to create powerful equipment or further enhance a piece of equipment you already own.

By successfully smithing a piece of equipment you can get a “Re-smith Gem” that allows you to enhance any equipment you currently own. Failing the re-smith won’t result in a loss of the item.
