We may have some potentially good news for fans of Square Enix's long-running
Final Fantasy series, as the developer has recently announced that a
Final Fantasy VII and
Final Fantasy VII Remastered bundle for the Nintendo Switch is on the way.
The potentially bad news is that the physical release for this
Final Fantasy VII/ Final Fantasy VII Remastered bundle will only be releasing in Asia — for now, at least. Now, the good news is that Nintendo Switch games are not region-locked — meaning that fans will still be able to purchase this bundle; the game's however, will not be in English.
Final Fantasy VII was released for the Nintendo Switch in March of this year, while
Final Fantasy VIII Remastered became available earlier this month. While Square Enix hasn't confirmed this bundle for the West, it is likely that they announce it rather sooner than later; we'll just have to cross our fingers and patiently wait for that announcement.
The world has fallen under the dominion of the Shinra Electric Power Company, a sinister corporation that has monopolized the planet's very life force as Mako energy. In the urban megalopolis of Midgar, an anti-Shinra rebel group calling themselves Avalanche have stepped up their campaign of resistance. Cloud Strife, a former member of Shinra's elite SOLDIER unit now turned mercenary, lends his aid to the rebels, unaware that he will be drawn into an epic battle for the fate of the planet, while having to come to terms with his own lost past.
Final Fantasy VII is currently available for the Nintendo Switch.
The Republic of Galbadia, under the influence of the sorceress Edea, mobilises its great armies against the other nations of the world. Squall and other members of SeeD, an elite mercenary force, join hands with Rinoa, a resistance fighter, to fight against Galbadia's tyrannical rule and to prevent Edea from fulfilling her ultimate goal.
Final Fantasy VIII Remastered is currently available for the Nintendo Switch.
