Cave Story 3D is an enhanced remake of Cave Story, specially designed for the Nintendo 3DS platform. The most notable change is a new visual style, transforming the original's 2D into a 2.5D mode with high-definition 3D polygon objects and dynamic lighting. This updated design adds more detail, changing how characters and environments interact. For example, moving blocks now behave like electric elevators, and water is animated. The game also features an automatic camera system that adjusts to provide a better view.

The soundtrack has been reworked by Dustin Kulwicki and Danny Baranowsky. While the overall gameplay remains similar, some tweaks have been made to make platforming easier, with more health pick-ups available. The base game includes four additional levels based on an unreleased beta of the original game. These new areas introduce new characters, a new weapon, and references to other NIS franchises.

However, Cave Story 3D does not include all the content from previous versions. Some features like the soundtrack player from the Nintendo DSi version are absent, as well as many of the additional content from the WiiWare version and Cave Story+. The new Wind Fortress area with its unique enemies and bosses, Nemesis Challenge, Boss Rush, and Curly Story game modes are also not part of this release.
