Let’s be honest: DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined is a massive undertaking. We are talking about a 100+ hour odyssey to restore the world map, one stone tablet at a time. Whether you are stuck on the grueling Demon Lord Orgodemir boss fight or simply don’t have the patience to grind 500 battles just to master the Hero vocation, using DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined console commands is a popular way to respect your own time.
However, accessing the developer debug menu in this remake isn’t straightforward. Square Enix has tightened security for the PC release.
Below is the complete guide on how to attempt forcing the console open, the known command logic, and the safer alternative – XMODhub Trainer, to cheat without corrupting your save file.
“DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined runs on Unreal Engine 5. Unlike the developer versions, the retail version on Steam is compiled as a ‘Shipping Build’. This means the debugging code (including the console) has been stripped out or disabled at the engine level.
While you can try injecting a ‘Universal Unreal Unlocker’ (UUU) to force the console back, this often triggers the Denuvo Anti-Tamper protection, causing the game to crash to desktop. At XMODhub, we recommend using an external memory trainer to modify game values directly, which is safer and less intrusive.”

How to Enable the Console (PC & Steam Deck)
If you are a power user and want to attempt unlocking the console via config files, here is the technical method:
Method A: The Config File Edit (PC)
Press Win + R, type %LOCALAPPDATA%, and press Enter.
Navigate to \DQ7R\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\.
Open Input.ini with Notepad.
Paste the following code at the bottom:
Ini, TOML
[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
ConsoleKey=Tilde
Save the file and set it to “Read Only” in properties.
Method B: Steam Deck / Linux
Go to Desktop Mode on your Steam Deck.
Locate the game installation folder (usually in .local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/).
Add -console to the Steam Launch Options.
Note: Accessing the keyboard overlay (Steam + X) to type commands mid-battle is clunky and often causes input lag.
Essential Console Commands List
If you successfully unlock the console (or use a UUU injector), use these standard UE5 commands.
Command
Effect
Notes
god
Invincibility. No damage taken.
Resets on level change.
slomo [number]
Changes game speed.
slomo 2 = 2x speed. slomo 1 = Normal.
toggledebugcamera
Free camera mode.
Great for exploring blocked map areas.
teleport
Moves character to crosshair.
Warning: Can stick you in walls.
stat fps
Show frame rate.
Performance check.
au.Debug.Audio 1
Debug Audio.
Useful if sound glitches occur.
DQ7 Reimagined Item IDs List
To use the give [ID] command (if enabled via mod), you need the internal asset names. These are case-sensitive.
Key Items (shards):
ID_Key_Shard_Yellow_01
ID_Key_Shard_Red_05
ID_Key_Tablet_Mysterious
Consumables:
ID_Item_SeedStrength (Seed of Strength)
ID_Item_SeedWisdom (Seed of Wisdom)
ID_Item_ElfinElixir
Warning: Spawning “Shards” (Stone Tablets) out of order can break the script for the Roamer or Dharma Temple arcs. It is safer to use a Trainer that adds items to the “Bag” memory address directly.
Critical: Backup Your Save Files
Before modifying any .ini files or using console commands, backup your save data.
Launch: Open XMODhub; it detects DRAGON QUEST VII.
Activate: Toggle “Infinite Health” or “Max Gold” and enjoy the story.
FAQ
Q: Can I unlock the framerate in DQ7 Reimagined?
A: Yes. Use the console command t.MaxFPS 120 or use the XMODhub FPS Unlocker feature for a smoother experience on high-refresh monitors.
Q: What is the cheat for Infinite Casino Tokens?
A: Console commands cannot easily modify mini-game currencies like Casino Tokens. You need the XMODhub Trainer to edit the specific memory value safely.
Q: Will console commands disable achievements?
A: Yes. Using the debug console usually flags the session, disabling Steam Achievements. XMODhub Trainers inject code in a way that keeps achievements active.
Conclusion: Cheat Smarter
While classic console commands are nostalgic, they are often risky and clunky in modern, Denuvo-protected games like DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined.
