Lee D’Amato is a writer born, raised, and based in Queens, New York. With collective thousands of hours in games like Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Elden Ring, and The Legend of Zelda, he’s now writes game features, guides, and reviews for Screen Rant, but has covered a wide range of topics, including ancient history, affordable travel, and overall health.
Collecting fragments is vital to your progress in Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined. Unlike previous games in the series, which typically feature larger continental maps, DQ7 is divided entirely into a series of small islands. You’ll need to unlock each individual region by assembling stone maps.
However, these maps are ancient and long since broken, consisting of colored fragments that have been flung far and wide across the world. While the game puts most of them directly in your path, you’ll have to go out of your way to find some of them.
Below is the location of every fragment in Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined that we’ve been able to find to date. If you’re missing one, I recommend cross-referencing this list with the Tablet List in the Info section of Dragon Quest 7‘s menu to find it quickly; they’re listed in the same order and with the same titles here. Note that this guide is a work in progress, and other fragments may be added over time.
