Square Enix will support Nintendo Switch with eight Final Fantasy titles
Final Fantasy is coming to Nintendo Switch in a big way, starting today.
Square Enix plans to support all major platforms with additional Final Fantasy titles, the company announced today. The system that benefits most from an expanded lineup, though, is the Nintendo Switch. The first of eight titles launched today.
Square Enix has shown strong support for most Nintendo platforms, but that support has often come in the form of Dragon Quest titles, or odd little offshoot games. Now, though, it is making up for lost time by extending its most popular brand to all relevant hardware.
The official list of games coming to Nintendo Switch in particular is as follows:
You can currently download Final Fantasy XV: Pocket Edition HD for $17.99 USD on the Nintendo eShop, as part of the multi-platform promotion Square Enix promised when it first announced the title a few days ago.
Most of the games on the above list are already available on PlayStation 4, or they would have been included in today's announcement. However, this is the most support for Final Fantasy that Square Enix has shown a Nintendo platform since the Super Nintendo, so you can maybe see why many Nintendo fans consider it a big deal.
