In the latest video of Nintendo's Creator's Voice series, Naoki Hamaguchi, the director of the Final Fantasy Remake series, announced exciting news for fans: Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is set to launch on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is an enhanced version of the 2020 PS4 release, Final Fantasy VII Remake, which serves as the inaugural chapter in the ambitious remake trilogy of the iconic 1997 PlayStation RPG, Final Fantasy VII. Intergrade, specifically designed for the PS5, boasts improved graphics and lighting over its PS4 predecessor and includes the Intermission DLC, featuring the adventures of the spirited ninja Yuffie in Midgar.
Currently available on PS5 and PC, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is poised to make its way to the Nintendo Switch 2, thanks to the console's enhanced capabilities. Hamaguchi expressed optimism about the port, stating, "With the power of the Switch 2, we can now recreate Midgar with full specs."
Hamaguchi highlighted the benefits of portability, noting, "Being able to play this game on the Switch 2 in handheld mode means you can play it on the train while commuting to work." He believes this feature will facilitate more direct engagement and sharing among players.The Switch 2 version will also introduce GameChat, allowing players to communicate with friends and share their screens in real-time during gameplay. Hamaguchi expressed his enthusiasm, saying, "I’m very excited to see this game playable on a portable system," and he looks forward to fostering a robust partnership between Nintendo and the Final Fantasy brand.
While only Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade has been confirmed for the Switch 2 so far, Hamaguchi hinted at the possibility of future releases, stating, "I hope players are looking forward to the Final Fantasy VII Remake series on Switch 2." This suggests that subsequent entries, such as Rebirth and the final installment of the trilogy, might also come to the Switch 2.
The Final Fantasy series, which originally debuted on Nintendo consoles, transitioned to the PlayStation 1 with Final Fantasy VII in 1997, marking its first 3D entry. With the remake series, Final Fantasy VII is set to return to Nintendo hardware, closing the loop on its storied history.
