Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Demo will be released tomorrow
06.01.26 - Square Enix will release a demo of the role-playing game Dragon Quest VII Reimagined (PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, Switch, PC) on 07.01.26.
Saves from the demo can be transferred to the full version. In addition, all users who play the demo will receive the "Day Off Dress" costume for Maribel, which can then be used in the full version.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined combines classic role-playing elements with a new, handcrafted 3D look. Characters, cities and dungeons appear like detailed dioramas, while cutscenes tell the story in the same stylized aesthetic. Release: 05.02.26 (Europe)
Ghost Player: Sony patents AI help for gamers
06.01.26 - Sony has filed a patent for a new technology that could allow PlayStation games to play partially or completely independently with the help of artificial intelligence. This is reported by Polygon.
The so-called "Ghost Player" system allows players to activate an AI-generated doppelganger of their character. This could either demonstrate a solution to a certain game section or complete the stage completely.
The patent was filed in September 2024 and published this week in an international status report from the World Intellectual Property Organization. The AI is to be trained on existing game material and not based on predefined inputs.
The system is reminiscent of the PS5 Game Help Service, which already provides players with hints about puzzles and challenges. Sony is not planning an immediate implementation, according to what is known so far, and it is unclear whether the technology will be used in future hardware.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is a definite day one purchase for me but am really looking forward to playing the demo tomorrow.
I completed Outlast, only took 7 years.
Now onto the Whistleblower dlc. Decent so far, still hate film grain.
