Square Enix Unveils Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for Nintendo Switch 2 at Nintendo Direct In a significant announcement during the latest Nintendo Direct, Square Enix confirmed that Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is officially coming to the Nintendo Switch 2.

This news marks a major milestone for both the developer and the platform, as fans had long speculated about the possibility of the critically acclaimed remake making its way to Nintendo's next-generation hardware. Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is the definitive edition of the first chapter in the ambitious remake project of the original Final Fantasy VII, a title often regarded as one of the most pivotal RPGs in gaming history.

Developed by Square Enix, this package not only includes a complete overhaul of the classic 1997 game’s opening saga, but also features the additional Yuffie Kisaragi-focused content, known as Episode INTERmission.

The release is set to provide Nintendo Switch 2 owners the chance to experience modernized visuals, expanded storytelling, and enhanced gameplay elements on a Nintendo platform for the very first time. As cited in the official announcement, Square Enix stated that Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade for Nintendo Switch 2 will bundle both the main Remake narrative and the critically praised Episode INTERmission, delivering a full-featured experience to new and returning fans alike.

At this time, no specific release date has been given; Square Enix’s official channels simply note the status as “to be decided.” Since its initial release on PlayStation 4 in April 2020 and subsequent Intergrade edition launch on PlayStation 5 in June 2021, Final Fantasy VII Remake has surpassed over five million units in global shipments and digital downloads.

The arrival of this title on the Nintendo Switch 2 further extends its reach and demonstrates the growing strength of Nintendo’s platform library. The reveal trailer, showcased during the Nintendo Direct presentation, provided a visual overview of the Remake’s reimagined Midgar and highlighted the high-fidelity graphics that players can expect on the Switch 2, as well as glimpses of Yuffie’s distinct gameplay from Episode INTERmission. Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade’s confirmation for Nintendo Switch 2 follows an ongoing trend of major third-party titles arriving on Nintendo hardware, reaffirming Square Enix’s commitment to supporting Nintendo’s platforms.

As details continue to develop, fans are encouraged to stay tuned to official Square Enix and Nintendo news outlets for updates regarding the launch date and additional features.

For now, Nintendo Switch 2 owners can anticipate one of Square Enix's most celebrated modern RPG experiences making its way to the next-generation console, offering both nostalgia and new adventures in Cloud Strife’s unforgettable journey.
