《勇者鬥惡龍 7 Reimagined》是在經典之上重獲新生的重製版，Square Enix與 HEXADRIVE攜手開發，於2026年2月5日正式登場，並將在Nintendo Switch 2、Switch、PlayStation 5、Xbox Series X|S與Windows平台推出，Steam版則於2月6日同步發售。以2000年原作《勇者鬥惡龍 7》為基礎，保留原作的宏大劇情與冒險核心，卻以「Reimagined」的形式徹底翻新，從系統到美術風格都進行大幅度重構，力求讓新玩家更容易上手，同時給老玩家帶來耳目一新的體驗。

在劇情方面，故事依舊以孤島「艾斯塔德島」作為起點。主角與摯友基法王子在一次偶然的探險中，發現神秘的石板碎片。當他們將碎片鑲嵌進神殿底座後，被耀眼的光芒引領進入陌生的世界。隨著不斷收集石板碎片，新的大地與失落的文明逐漸復甦，冒險的舞台也隨之拓展。這場從單純好奇心出發的旅程，最終卻揭示了威脅整個世界的邪惡勢力與不為人知的真相，將少年少女推向一場跨越時空的壯闊冒險。

操作與系統上，進一步進化。推動劇情的核心仍是四散各地的石板碎片，需透過探索城鎮、迷宮來蒐集，並利用神殿的石板底座開啟新篇章。除原有的冒險架構，還加入隨玩家選擇而產生變化的支線劇情，以及全新創作的故事內容。戰鬥方面，職業系統是核心亮點。每個職業都具備專屬「職業特性」，在戰鬥中達成條件即可爆發強力效果。隨著冒險深入，角色甚至能同時兼任兩種職業，習得更多咒文與特技，構築出更具戰略性的隊伍組合。

美術與角色表現則以全新的「人偶風」呈現。由鳥山明原創設計的角色，被轉化為帶有溫潤質感的人偶風格 3D 模型。這種微縮模型般的美術手法，也延伸至野外與迷宮，為冒險增添獨特的氛圍。不僅能感受到角色的魅力，也能在探索過程中欣賞到極具工藝感的世界構築。

為改善遊玩流暢度，引入多種便利功能。除「快捷指令」能快速執行常用操作，還提供「自動戰鬥」與「原野攻擊」功能，使玩家能迅速解決弱小敵人，將重心放在探索與劇情之中。這些調整大幅降低了操作門檻，也讓冒險節奏更為順暢。

市場期待度方面，甫公布即成為焦點。作為系列中最龐大、劇情最複雜的一作，它的重製不僅承載老玩家的回憶，也被視為讓新世代玩家重新認識經典的契機。玩家普遍期待本作能在保持原作劇情厚度的同時，以嶄新系統與美術表現帶來符合現代審美與操作習慣的體驗。

整體而言，《勇者鬥惡龍 7 Reimagined》並非單純的畫質提升，而是一場真正的再構築。它既是向原作的致敬，也是革新：透過新風格的角色與場景，強化的職業系統，以及更直覺的遊玩體驗，為玩家展開關於勇氣、希望與友情的嶄新旅程。這場冒險從孤島啟程，終將引領玩家跨越大海與時空，揭開世界的真相，再次感受「勇者鬥惡龍」系列的核心魅力。

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is a bold new take on the 2000 classic, bringing a beloved adventure back to life with modernized systems, restructured storytelling, and an accessible gameplay flow. Developed by Square Enix in collaboration with HEXADRIVE Inc., this reimagined edition will be released on February 5, 2026, for Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Microsoft Store on Windows, while the Steam version will arrive on February 6, 2026.

The story begins on Estard Island, where the protagonist and his close friend, Prince Kiefer, stumble upon fragments of a mysterious stone tablet. By setting these fragments into the pedestal within a sacred temple, they are enveloped in a mystical light and transported to unknown lands. Each discovery of a new fragment further expands their world, leading them into encounters with strange realms, hidden histories, and eventually, a sinister force that threatens existence itself.

A key mechanic lies in the collection of stone tablet fragments, scattered across towns, dungeons, and far-off locations. As fragments are restored, new lands and stories are revealed. Players can also rely on the Stone Tablet Guide, a checklist, and mini-map hints to track down pieces more efficiently. Beyond faithfully recreated arcs, the reimagined edition introduces branching story paths and brand-new narrative content, adding depth and replay value.

Visually, the game is reborn with a “doll-like” art style, reinterpreting Akira Toriyama’s iconic character designs through warm-textured 3D graphics. Characters, fields, and dungeons are styled like miniature dioramas, creating a unique balance of charm and immersion.

Combat is anchored by an all-new class system, where each job offers unique Job Traits that activate during powered-up states. Players can also unlock the ability to dual-class, combining abilities, spells, and traits from two different professions, vastly expanding combat strategies and enhancing party growth.

To make the journey smoother, several quality-of-life features have been added: frequently used actions like “party heal” can be assigned to shortcut buttons, a fast auto-battle system allows for quicker fights, and the field attack mechanic lets players instantly defeat weaker monsters encountered in the overworld.

At its core, the game retains the sense of wonder and courage that defined the original. What begins with a simple curiosity—“There must be a wider world beyond the sea… and we’ll prove it!”—unfolds into a sweeping tale of discovery, peril, and hope. Through stone tablets and time-spanning adventures, players will experience encounters, challenges, and revelations that shape not only the fate of the characters but also the truth of the world itself.

With its blend of nostalgia and reinvention, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined invites veterans and newcomers alike to set sail on an unforgettable journey across seas, ages, and destinies.
