Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past is getting a remake that serves as a reimagining of the classic RPG.
Dubbed Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, the game features a new 3D art style with character models rendered using real-life dolls to create an overall hand-crafted, diorama-style aesthetic. According to Square Enix, the game’s story has been “enhanced to provide a more streamlined experience.” Other quality of life improvements include a redesigned UI.
The turn-based battles have also been overhauled to be more dynamic, and the vocation system has been updated with a “Moonlighting’ mechanic that lets players use two vocations at once. Furthermore, a “Let Loose” ability activates when a character becomes worked up, and a new “Monster Master” vocation introduces a perk called Positive Reinforcement that summons powerful monsters to help in battle.
Dragon Quest VII was first released in Japan for the PlayStation in 2000 and in North America in 2001. The game was later re-released for the 3DS in 2016, which served as a remake in its own right, so Reimagined is technically the time DQ VII has been overhauled.
Dragon Quest VII launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, Switch, and PC on February 5.
