A message from Producer Takeshi Ichikawa was also shared:
DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined is a new version of DRAGON QUEST VII that has been rebuilt from the ground up for modern audiences.
When we decided to remake DRAGON QUEST VII, we thought deeply about the visual direction. We wanted audiences worldwide, not just in Japan, to grow fond of the charming characters designed by Akira Toriyama.
So, in order to depict the depth and feel of DRAGON QUEST VII’s story more vividly, we took on a new challenge for the DRAGON QUEST series: employing a hand-crafted art style and developing in-game environments that resembles dioramas.
DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined not only “reimagines” the visual and emotional portrayal of its characters, but also makes the game’s story significantly more approachable and accessible.
So, whether you enjoyed DRAGON QUEST VII on its original release, struggled to collect all the tablets, or are just experiencing the DRAGON QUEST series for the first time, we believe this game will provide a satisfying experience.
We hope you all enjoy it!
