==Localization history==
The Japanese name いのちのゆびわ (ring of life) was first localized in English as the [[recovery ring]] in 2005 for the international release of {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. It was retained for the 2008 localization of {{Dragon Quest IV}} but was replaced with the life ring term in the 2010 localization of {{Dragon Quest IX}}, and then reinstated in 2014 with the Android/iOS localization of {{Dragon Quest III}}. Beginning with the 2016 localization of {{Dragon Quest VII}} the recovery name has been retired outside of reuse in iterations of ''Dragon Quest III''.
