The wait for one of the most expansive journeys in RPG history is finally over. Released on February 5, 2026, DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined has officially arrived on the Nintendo Switch, bringing a beloved classic into the modern era with a breathtaking makeover.
Whether you’re a veteran of the original PlayStation epic or a newcomer ready to piece together a shattered world, this version is designed to be the definitive way to play.
What’s New in the Reimagined Edition?
This isn't just a simple port. Square Enix has overhauled the experience to ensure the game feels fresh while maintaining its soulful charm:
Diorama Visuals: The world of Dragon Quest VII has been transformed with a stunning new "diorama" art style. The vibrant, miniature-inspired aesthetics breathe new life into every town and dungeon, making the world feel like a living, breathing tabletop masterpiece.
A Streamlined Story: Known for its incredible length, the "Reimagined" version features a tightened narrative pace. Key story beats have been polished to keep the momentum going without losing the emotional depth of the episodic island-hopping adventures.
Refreshed Battles: Combat has received a significant tune-up. Expect snappier animations, rebalanced job classes, and quality-of-life improvements that make grinding for that perfect Vocation feel more rewarding than ever.
The Quest to Restore the World
You begin as a simple fisherman's son on an island that is seemingly the only land in existence. By discovering mysterious stone tablets, you travel to the past to save forgotten civilizations, watching as they reappear in your present day. It remains one of the most unique "world-building" hooks in gaming history.
DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined is available now on the Nintendo eShop.
