About DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined 
DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined is a remake of DRAGON QUEST VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past, originally released in 2000, rendered in a warm hand-crafted 3DCG art style. This grand adventure, sparked by the small curiosity of a group of childhood friends living on an isolated island, has been completely reconstructed (Reimagined) from the ground up—not just the graphics, but the scenario, battles, side quests, and systems as well.
