Square Enix has released a new trailer for Dragon Quest VII Reimagined introducing party member Ruff, a kind-hearted boy accompanied by a wolf. Although Ruff is naive, his sharp, animal-like instincts will prove useful in combat in Dragon Quest VII 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 will be available with 48 hours of early access, a unique costume for playable character Ruff and three paid DLC packs. 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.
