Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2 Release This Winter

Square Enix has officially confirmed that Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade will launch on the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 this winter, marking a major milestone for the platform as it welcomes a flagship modern JRPG from one of Japan’s most iconic game developers.

This announcement follows a surge of excitement in April when the gaming community received its first substantial glimpse of the Nintendo Switch 2’s hardware capabilities, which promise to significantly expand third-party support and deliver vastly improved gaming experiences compared to its predecessor. According to the latest update on Square Enix’s dedicated webpage for Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, the celebrated remake will arrive not only on the Switch 2 but also on Xbox consoles later this winter.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade offers players an enhanced version of the critically acclaimed first installment in the Remake project, featuring advanced visual fidelity and the inclusion of the "Episode INTERmission"—a side story starring fan-favorite character Yuffie.

This expanded content was previously exclusive to PlayStation and PC platforms, and the move to Nintendo Switch 2 signals a broader initiative from Square Enix to bring key titles to wider audiences. While Square Enix has not yet provided an exact release date, the company has assured fans that Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is on track to launch before the end of 2025.

This aligns with the developer’s ongoing strategy to support a multi-platform release framework for its major franchises.

A spokesperson for Square Enix highlighted that bringing the title to Nintendo’s next-generation platform was enabled by the Switch 2’s increased processing power, which allows the game’s enhanced graphics and dynamic environments to run smoothly. For Nintendo Switch 2 users, the arrival of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade not only adds a marquee third-party game to the system’s growing catalog but also further demonstrates Nintendo’s commitment to courting core gamers and expanded partnerships within the industry.

As anticipation builds for the official launch date, players can look forward to experiencing the classic RPG reimagined with modern visuals and new storylines, now fully optimized for the advanced capabilities of the Switch 2. With growing details about the Switch 2’s backward compatibility and hardware enhancements drawing headlines, this winter’s release of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is poised to be a significant event for fans of both Nintendo and Square Enix alike.

Further updates, including pre-order information and digital availability via the eShop, will follow as soon as they are officially announced.
