On January 26, 2026, the legendary Japanese RPG Dragon Quest VII Reimagined was finally released. To commemorate the launch of this game, “Lawson,” a ubiquitous convenience store chain in Japan, is holding a special campaign. Japanese convenience stores—often called Konbini—are not just places to buy groceries; they are entertainment hubs for enjoying pop culture like anime and games. Today, we’re introducing a very rare giveaway event that you can participate in by purchasing a PlayStation Store prepaid card.
Limited to 30 Winners! Rare “Smile Slime” Goods
The highlight of this campaign is exclusive merchandise that only 30 lucky winners will receive via lottery. The prize is the “Smile Slime Salt & Pepper Shakers (Slime & King Slime).” The “Slime” is the adorable, teardrop-shaped monster that symbolizes the Dragon Quest series. This Slime, along with the crown-wearing King Slime, has been transformed into seasoning shakers to decorate your dining table. This is a collector’s item that fans simply cannot miss.
How to Participate in the Campaign
The process is simple. During the campaign period, purchase a “PlayStation Store Card 10,000 JPY” ticket at any Lawson store in Japan. Then, access the dedicated campaign website and enter the barcode number found on the back of the card to apply.
There is an important point to note: Digital gift cards or tickets issued via the in-store multimedia terminal “Loppi” are not eligible. You must purchase the physical card displayed on the racks in the store at the register.

Important Dates and Rules
The eligible purchase period is from Monday, January 26, 2026, to Sunday, February 15, 2026. The application deadline is the following day, Monday, February 16, but cards purchased on February 16 are invalid. We highly recommend purchasing by February 15 to be safe. You can apply as many times as you like. It’s a fun way to test your luck while topping up funds to buy the game.
Designs That Turn Your Table into an Adventure

Take a look at the image. The unique round forms and charming expressions of the Slimes have been perfectly recreated. Just having these figures in your kitchen or on your dining table will turn every meal into a little adventure. While the number of winners is extremely low at just 30, the joy of winning will be exceptional. Winners are scheduled to be announced from late February 2026 onwards, with prizes shipping in late March. Cute Slimes might arrive at your home just as spring comes to Japan.
Happening Now at Lawsons Nationwide
This campaign is running at Lawson, Natural Lawson, and Lawson Store 100 locations across Japan. Some stores may not be participating, so please check the sales floor before purchasing. Also, remember that prepaid cards cannot be returned or refunded once purchased. Be careful not to buy the wrong type of card.
Just as the world of Dragon Quest VII has been renewed, your usual Konbini shopping trip can turn into an exciting event. If you are currently visiting Japan or have an interest in Japanese gaming culture, be sure to stop by a nearby Lawson and feel the excitement.
