Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth launches on Switch 2 today

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth launches on Nintendo Switch 2 today, giving Nintendo’s new hardware one of its biggest third-party RPG tests so far. Rebirth is not a tiny port. It is a massive, sprawling RPG with huge environments, flashy combat, elaborate cutscenes and enough emotional baggage to fill several memory cards. That makes the Switch 2 release important for two reasons. First, it gives Nintendo players access to the second major chapter of Square Enix’s remake trilogy. Second, it shows how well Switch 2 can handle large modern third-party RPGs without feeling like the compromise version. Early coverage has pointed to some expected graphical adjustments, but if the experience holds together, this could be a major confidence boost for the platform’s third-party future.
