Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will have a new ending based player choices made throughout the story, according to a Gameinformer interview with game producer Takeshi Ichikawa. Ichikawa reiterates that this particular ending of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will be new to players who played previous versions of DQ VII.
Ichikawa said, “[Reimagined] follows the narrative of the original story, but depending on some of the […] player choices, players will get to see a new conclusion that’s never been seen before in previous iterations. So, even players who have played previous versions of Dragon Quest VII, they’ll still get to have this fresh narrative experience with Reimagined.”
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined launches on February 5, 2026 for Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store. A physical Collector’s Edition will be sold featuring a Ship in a Bottle figure, Slime Plush, Steelbook, and more. Moreover, a Digital Deluxe Edition featuring 48 hours of early access, a unique costume for playable character Ruff and three paid DLC packs will be available. Purchase any edition of the game early to receive the Early Bird Bonus, which will give players a Dragon Quest VIII costume for the Hero and three Seeds of Proficiency. Digital purchases include a Slime Shield specific to each platform.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will not have an upgrade path from Nintendo Switch to Nintendo Switch 2, however. In addition to no upgrade path, there will be no save data transfers between the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined. Download codes for in-game bonuses will also be tied to their respective versions. In addition, save data bonuses from Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake are also tied to Dragon Quest VII Reimagined’s respective versions.
