In simpler terms, Final Fantasy 14 is the MMORPG version of the franchise that fits the trend of ongoing services. Introduced in 2010 and still going strong today due to regular content updates, it has been a staple on various consoles, from PS3/Xbox One generation and beyond. However, it hasn’t made its way onto the Nintendo Switch yet. With the arrival of the upgraded Switch 2, fans are eagerly anticipating the possibility of playing Final Fantasy 14 on their handheld console. But what’s Square Enix’s stance on this?
After the initial Switch 2 Direct presentation, it’s evident that Nintendo aims to position its new console as a prime spot for RPG enthusiasts, alongside their own exclusive games. For many gaming aficionados, the Final Fantasy series is a crucial RPG franchise they wouldn’t want to miss out on. Today, there might have been some long-awaited news regarding Final Fantasy 14 on the Switch 2. At the Gamescom conference in Cologne, Video Games Chronicle inquired about this possibility from the game’s producer, Naoki Yoshida. In response, Yoshida hinted at potential positive updates for fans in the coming days.
Final Fantasy 14 Likely Headed to Switch 2, But Square Enix Needs “A Little Bit More Time”
The upcoming Switch 2 appears ready to excel in Role-Playing Games (RPGs), surpassing what its predecessor achieved, and it’s even landed the next game from FromSoftware as an exclusive console title. Add to that games like Persona 3 Reload, and Switch 2 owners are enthused about the console’s RPG selection compared to its earlier version. However, we can’t help but crave even more!
Fans of Final Fantasy series have been eagerly anticipating significant updates since it was announced that “Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade” would be available on consoles. With Square Enix’s latest game now slated for a handheld device, there has been hope among fans for more Final Fantasy games to be made compatible with the console. Previous statements by Square Enix indicate a strong partnership with Nintendo, raising expectations of further announcements regarding the porting of Final Fantasy games to the Switch 2.
As a passionate fan, it feels like Yoshida is hinting at the possibility of “Final Fantasy 14” coming to the Switch 2 as well. In an interview with Video Game Chronicle, he mentioned his aim to make both “Final Fantasy 14” and “16” accessible to a wide array of players. While he didn’t explicitly confirm it, he did mention that the team is putting forth their utmost effort to bring these latest installments of Final Fantasy onto the Switch 2. He also asked for a bit more patience as they work towards this goal.
It appears that the release of Final Fantasy 14 on Nintendo Switch 2 hasn’t been confirmed officially, but it seems like Square Enix and Yoshida are seriously considering it as part of their plan for other Final Fantasy games on the console. The game producer mentioned they have been having positive discussions with Nintendo, so while we don’t have an announcement yet, the possibility of a Switch 2 version of Final Fantasy 14 has become more concrete.
