In Dragon Quest VII, our heroes learn that their island home isn’t all there is to the world. There’s more than just Estard. By going into ruins, they can reach new island. This allows them to expand the world. This new version will also apparently include new sidequests for us to take and extra minigames to go through. There is also the updated visual design for this new remake.

This isn’t the first remake of this title. The game first appeared on the PlayStation worldwide. Japanese mobile devices got it in 2015. But then, in 2013 in Japan, a 3DS release appeared. It showed up worldwide in 2016. 

Here’s the full September 2025 Nintendo Direct:

The Dragon Quest VII Reimagined remake will come to the Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 5, 2026.
