Those posts also pointed to a newly revealed trailer showing action-packed moments from the alleged game.
To be clear: Square Enix has not issued an official announcement confirming a game titled "Final Fantasy Revelation" or an April 8 release tied to any Nintendo platform.
The company has publicly confirmed that the Final Fantasy VII remake project is a multi-part undertaking, and the most recent, officially announced and released entry in that project is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, which launched for PlayStation 5 on February 29, 2024.
Rewriting the circulating claim in journalistic terms: online sources asserted that Square Enix scheduled the final installment of the Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy, called Final Fantasy Revelation, for release on an unannounced Nintendo Switch successor on April 8, accompanied by a new trailer.
However, those assertions remain unverified by Square Enix.
Established, verifiable context: the original Final Fantasy VII Remake shipped in April 2020 for PlayStation 4 and later received the enhanced Intergrade release for PlayStation 5 in June 2021.
Square Enix confirmed the remake would span multiple titles rather than a single release, and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth serves as the second major instalment in that plan.
Square Enix and official channels remain the authoritative sources for release dates, platform announcements, and new trailers.
Nintendo has not publicly confirmed a product officially called "Nintendo Switch 2" as of the most recent company statements, so any claims tying a specific release date to such hardware should be treated cautiously until verified by Nintendo or Square Enix.
For readers tracking this story: rely on official Square Enix press releases, the company’s verified social channels, and announcements during established showcases such as Nintendo Direct or PlayStation State of Play.
Until an official statement is released, references to "Final Fantasy Revelation," an April 8 launch, or a Nintendo Switch successor port should be considered unconfirmed.
