Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Remake Part 3 are set to be released on Nintendo Switch 2 in the future, and when they do launch, fans can rest easy knowing that the games won’t be comprised on the hardware.
Square Enix just came out with Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade on the system. The team delivered a port that’s in many ways superior to the PS4 version and on par with the PS5 edition. The next two entries in the series are bigger games, but they won’t be compromised on Nintendo Switch 2. Director Naoki Hamaguchi said a recent interview that the titles “are being developed in a way that keeps the gameplay experience pretty much exactly the same as all the other platforms”.

You might simply melt into the experience, and I think that’s exactly what they set out to do.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade just got a demo on Nintendo Switch 2 yesterday, and now that we have extended footage, graphics comparisons have started to emerge – including one that shows it running up against the PS4 and Steam Deck.
