July 31: Square Enix is back with a new look at Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles with a story trailer. This accompanies the short segment for the game during today’s Nintendo Direct.

Could we see Final Fantasy 14 on Nintendo Switch 2 one day? Producer Naoki ‘Yoshi-P’ Yoshida has indicated that Square Enix is in talks with Nintendo, and it sounds like things are going well so far.

He said in the interview with VGC when asked about potentially getting Final Fantasy 14 on Nintendo Switch 2:

“For me, it’s just my aim to provide Final Fantasy 14 and 16 to as many players as possible, and I hope that as many players as possible will be able to enjoy those two games. We are putting in our best efforts to ensure that this happens, so it’s fine to convey to your readership that I consider the possibilities very positively, and we are putting in our best efforts, so I hope players will look forward to possibilities in the future. But I just ask for a little bit more time.”

Square Enix has spoken about why it wanted to make its first HD-2D action RPG with The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales.

The company kicked off the Nintendo Switch generation with Octopath Traveler, which is largely a traditional RPG. We started to see Square Enix explore other genres for HD-2D with Triangle Strategy, but the action RPG space is a new venture.

The developers behind Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster have spoken about why Square Enix revisited the game for Nintendo Switch 2.

You can actually chalk this one up to timing. Square Enix was thinking about ways to celebrate the series’ tenth anniversary, which could have happened with a new game or a remake. Square Enix ultimately settled on a remaster, and it just so happened that the development schedule overlapped with Nintendo Switch 2’s launch.

Bravely series producer Tomoya Asano and HD Remaster producer Naofumi Matsushita shared the following in a recent interview:

Romancing SaGa 2 Revenge Seven update 1.1.0

Square Enix has issued a new 1.1.0 update for Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of Seven. The patch comes following the new Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, which was announced and released yesterday.

The update includes the original soundtrack version for the two Dread Queen battle background music tracks. Square Enix also adjusted some abilities and gear, added options for New Game+, adjusted ship travel speed, and more.

The full rundown is as follows:

One of the most anticipated titles of 2025, Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles is set to release on September 30 for Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch. The game is a modern remaster of the tactical RPG originally released for the PlayStation in 1997.

Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake is set to Switch and Switch 2 on October 30, 2025, and Square Enix has provided more information about the compatibility between both versions.

In an FAQ section for the game’s official site, Square Enix shares that there is no upgrade path for Nintendo Switch 2 users, and that save data is not transferrable between the two versions. We have the quote from the site here:

Square Enix is hosting one of its biggest Nintendo eShop sales ever for Switch right now, with many games at new low prices – Final Fantasy 9, NieR: Automata, and Octopath Traveler 2 are just a few of these. Well over fifty titles from the publisher are seeing discounts currently.

The full lineup is as follows:

Square Enix is here with a launch trailer for Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster. This is the company’s first release on Nintendo Switch 2, tying in with the platform’s launch.
