During a sizzle reel, a handful of third-party publishers announced upcoming ports of older games, and some are even launching alongside the console on June 5, 2025. Among the featured games is Final Fantasy 7 Remake.

The game was originally released on the PlayStation 4 in 2020, and the Nintendo Switch 2 has the extra horsepower to grant players access to the first part of the Unknown Journey even on the go.

Some players have been hoping for a Nintendo Switch port, but this graphically demanding game could push the older hardware to its breaking point. The newer console could fill the gaps and let gamers play on the go or in docked mode.


This version includes the Yuffie Kisaragi DLC

Final Fantasy 7 Remake was re-released for the PlayStation 5 and PC platforms shortly after launching on PlayStation 4. It received a few visual enhancements and extra story content featuring Yuffie Kisaragi. Nintendo shared new details of other ports, including this one, and what players can expect.

Yuffie's story takes place outside the main story with Cloud and the party, but it is a nice add-on and origin story for the iconic Wutai ninja. The Nintendo Switch 2 version is essentially the best since this console can be docked on a larger display and you can continue the lengthy campaign outdoors.

Hamaguchi didn't reveal much about the port and encouraged the player base to wait for updates in the near future.


The Nintendo Switch 2 will be released worldwide on June 5, 2025. For more related articles, check these out:
