Travel to the past to save the future in this definitive version of Dragon Quest VII. Originally released for the Nintendo 3DS, this 'Reimagined' edition leverages the power of Citra emulation to bring high-definition textures, 4K resolution support, and the beautiful orchestrated Japanese soundtrack to PC players for the first time.
The story begins on Estard, the only island in the entire world—or so the inhabitants believe. You play as the Hero, a young man who, alongside Prince Kiefer and the headstrong Maribel, discovers a way to travel back in time to lost continents. By solving the mysteries of these forgotten lands, you restore them to the present day. This version features a complete overhaul of the visuals using custom HD texture packs that replace every environment and character texture with high-fidelity assets, creating a visual experience far beyond the original hardware limitations.

- The HD textures make this look like a modern indie title rather than a handheld port. The orchestrated music is the real game-changer here!
- Absolutely the best way to play DQ7. The 3DS screen was too small for a game this epic. Seeing it in 1440p with the texture pack is incredible.
- Dragon Quest VII is a slow burn, but this Reimagined pack makes the journey so much more pleasant. Highly recommended for JRPG fans.
- Setup was easy and the performance on Citra is flawless. The character designs by Akira Toriyama really pop with the HD pack.
- If you missed this on the PS1 or 3DS, this is the version to get. The sheer scale of the world is unmatched in the series.
