 A remake for the Playstation was created by Enix Japan, using the  engine from Dragon Quest VII. Many other improvements were made  including the ability to control your entire party during combat,  instead of only being able to control your main character and giving  general orders to the rest. However, when the group that coded it  was broken up to work on other projects, the source code was lost.  This forced Enix to cancel the American release of the remake, one  Enix anticipated releasing, to the point of advertising it for  release on the back of the manual of the American release of Dragon  Warrior VII.
