Square Enix has confirmed that the highly anticipated title Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will be available on Nintendo’s next console, the Switch 2, with a scheduled release for 2025. This news was announced through a video published on Nintendo’s YouTube channel, where Naoki Hamaguchi, the game’s director, expressed his excitement about establishing a strong collaboration with the Japanese company.
Hamaguchi not only referred to Rebirth, but also mentioned the word “saga,” suggesting that a possible third part of the remake could be released in 2027 or 2028, as long as Square Enix’s plans unfold as expected. This raises expectations among the fans of the series, who are eager to relive the story of Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith on this new platform.
The Nintendo Switch 2 aims to establish itself as a console capable of handling AAA titles, with developers like CD Projekt and FromSoftware already confirming that recognized titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring are on their way to the new console. This occasion represents a crucial moment not only for Square Enix but also for Nintendo, which seeks to attract a broader audience with its new platform, set to debut on June 5 of this year.
In addition, other companies like Ubisoft have expressed their commitment to support the Switch 2 in the coming years, which could further increase the appeal of the console. Players of Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch, who have stayed on the sidelines of the early titles of the remake, now have reasons to feel excitement about imminent releases that could change the dynamics of access to iconic stories in the realm of JRPGs.
