Dragon Quest Day is fast approaching, and the buzz around the event suggests it will be a spectacular celebration for the franchise’s devoted fanbase.
The highlight of the week will be on 27 May, a date that has long been earmarked as pivotal because it marks the 40th anniversary of the beloved series. The anticipation for this milestone is now reaching a fever pitch.
Reddit users have uncovered eight previously hidden videos on Square Enix’s official Dragon Quest YouTube playlist, all of which appear to have been added only recently.
These clips hint at a lineup of reveal trailers, with one expected to spotlight the long‑awaited re‑release of Dragon Quest 12: The Flames of Fate—a title that has been conspicuously absent from the series’ recent releases.
Rumors have surfaced about a possible remake or remaster of Dragon Quest 8, yet these claims have never been substantiated by any credible source.
It would be logical for Square Enix to revisit the austere PS2 classic, especially after the commercial triumph of Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined, which proved the franchise’s enduring appeal and the market’s appetite for polished, modernized versions of beloved titles.
We’ll be covering Dragon Quest Day 2026 live right here on Push Square. Although the livestream’s start time remains undisclosed—likely skewed toward Japanese audiences—there’s a good chance one of us will be up to catch the event.
