“To my knowledge there’s no plans to bring 7th Dragon westward at this present time I’m afraid. But never say never.” – SEGA’s official Twitter

It’d be a shame if 7th Dragon never made it outside of Japan. Although the DS has a number of RPGs, I really like the style of the game. Hopefully it’ll release in other territories sometime in the future.


We posted a piece of information from this interview yesterday, but now you can check out the full version…
