Review: Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Shakes Up a Classic While the wait for Dragon Quest XII continues, Square Enix has kept the fires burning for the Dragon Quest series by remaking some of the earlier entries. First, the legendary Dragon Quest III was given the HD-2D treatment while largely retaining its original structure. Next, Dragon Quest I & II underwent a similar process while also dramatically expanding on the sparser bones of those pioneering RPGs. While one might have expected Dragon Quest IV to be the next game to be reissued, Square Enix decided to hop ahead to the PlayStation Dragon Quest game, Dragon Quest VII . We've had plenty of time to spend with Dragon Quest VII Reimagined to see what its new take has to offer players both returning and new. At the time Dragon Quest VII first released on the original PlayStation back in 2000, its five-year development time seemed quite lengthy. In Japan, expectations and anticipation ran equally high. The game met and exceeded that hype by most measures, going on to become the highest-selling PlayStation game in the region. When the game arrived in North America just over a year later, it was facing a very different situation. With Enix's original American offices having closed early in the 16-bit era, the mainline series hadn't seen a localized release since 1992. Dubbed Dragon Warrior VII for the West, the game struggled with being a humble-looking PlayStation RPG in a post-PlayStation 2 world. Screenshot via Siliconera Those who tackled the game came away with varying thoughts on it. Dragon Quest VII is a lengthy game relative to other RPGs of its era, with a slow initial build-up and lots of ways to get hopelessly far off-track. Its focus on a series of smaller vignettes over a strong over-arching plot ran against the popular grain of the genre at the time, and its systems could be rather complex. Some people loved these aspects, while others found themselves bouncing off of the game. When Square Enix made its first attempt at remaking the game via Dragon Quest VII for Nintendo 3DS, it attempted to address some of these issues. While preserving virtually all of the same events and most of the systems from the original, it was a brisker affair due to various additions and tweaks. Dragon Quest VII Reimagined goes further, and it's a very different game from the source material. It subtracts almost as much as it adds, and at times it feels like the opposite of what we saw with Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake . It's a take that wants you to get lost less often and get to the exciting bits faster. Instead of the humble look of the original or using a throwback style, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined opts for a more modern presentation with diorama-like visuals. Its glasses are off, its hair has been styled up, and it's in the best threads it could find. Can it finally be the star of the prom? Screenshot by Siliconera It's a smoother experience than the previous versions of Dragon Quest VII . Many rough edges have been significantly sanded off, and a strong effort was made to reduce friction as much as possible. Getting lost is nearly impossible, as the game will always point you to where you need to go next. Important items will be marked on your map. You'll have your first battle much sooner. The job system is functioning right from the start of the game, though it still takes a little while before you can fully play around with it. Chunks of the world and the scenarios that go with them have been omitted. As an exchange, some things have been added to the story too. This is a version of Dragon Quest VII trying its hardest to please the crowd. Stepping back from my own personal feelings, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is without question a good RPG. It's very smooth to play, and I think its snappier pace makes for a more immediately appealing adventure. Yet I can't help but feel it has sacrificed a lot of its original identity to achieve all of this. Newcomers will likely enjoy what they find here, and the fact that it's so different from the previous versions means that returning players have a reason to play it as well. It's an abridged take on the game, for better or worse, but it's certainly a well-made one. Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will come to Switch , Switch 2 , PlayStation 5 , Xbox Series S/X , and PC via Steam on February 5, 2026, 2026.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 Will Get Day 1 Graphics Patch RGG Studio announced on social media that the company plans to release a day 1 patch to address graphics quality issues in Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties . The 1.11 update is designed based on feedback and other fixes. There will also be “other fixes” present, though the developer didn’t offer exact details explaining what the other adjustments might entail. As part of the message, RGG Studio said the Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties demo quality is different from the full game and the graphics are at a different state. It also noted that there will be further updates though in order to ensure it meets expectations. One situation confirmed to be rectified involves the Downtown Ryukyu area for Kazuma Kiryu’s storyline, and the developer acknowledged areas alongside the Kubochi River that people reported will be addressed with lighting improvements. The Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties demo is immediately available on various platforms. However, it involves isolated slices of both Kazuma Kiryu and Yoshitaka Mine’s storylines. This means you can’t carry over your progress to the final game. Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties will come to the Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 12, 2026, and the day one graphics patch will appear at launch.

Card-en-Ciel Getting Crossover DLC Dated Inti Creates announced that Card-en-Ciel will get crossover DLC featuring characters and songs from its games Blaster Master Zero and Gal Guardians: Servants of Dark . They will be available alone or together via an expansion pass. The Gal Guardians add-on will appear first on February 19, 2026. Blaster Master Zero elements won’t arrive until March 12, 2026. The initial details are a bit slim. For example, we don’t know exactly which characters from the two Inti Creates games will be part of their crossover DLC in Card-en-Ciel . We do know that each one will get dungeons based on their series, new dialogue scenes involving Neon and Ancie with the characters, of course cards based on them, and Muses that will feature music from those games. While details about that aren’t completely available, there is another element that is fully revealed. Card-en-Ciel is now on the Switch 2. That version features some quality of life adjustments catering to the system’s additional elements, such as mouse controls when selecting cards as an option during fights. If you own the original Switch game, it will cost $9.99 to upgrade.
