Square Enix has announced that a demo for Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will become available tomorrow, January 7. On top of that, your save data can be transferred to the full game when it launches next month, meaning your lengthy adventure can start early for the RPG remake.
It’s unknown how much content is in the Dragon Quest VII Reimagined demo to check out. However, Square Enix is promising on X that players will receive Maribel’s Day Off Dress as a reward in the full game.
Play the free demo for DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined starting January 7th on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam!

This is the second month in a row that Square Enix is offering up a demo for a big-name RPG. Last month, a demo arrived for Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S, with that full game set to release later this month.
This is exciting news for Dragon Quest fans! A demo is a great way to give players a taste of the reimagined adventure. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together!
