Square Enix is bringing Final Fantasy to Switch in a big way over the next several months. Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition HD is out now, World of Final Fantasy Maxima is following in November, and we’re getting a ton of games next year – including Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age.
Amazon has added in a listing for Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age, which comes with the boxart shown above. It also confirms a price point of $49.99. The RPG is also coming to Xbox One and costs the same amount, so there won’t be a price hike for the Switch version fortunately.
You can pre-order Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age on Amazon here.
