Final Fantasy 14 and Final Fantasy 16 could head to Switch 2 next

Final Fantasy 14 was at one point a PlayStation console exclusive. That finally changed last year, with the full MMO coming to Xbox. Now, it looks like Nintendo could be the next major platform for the game. 

During an interview with VGC at Gamescom last week, Final Fantasy producer, Naoki Yoshida, expressed an interest in bringing Final Fantasy 14 and Final Fantasy 16 to “as many players as possible”. He added that he hoped to have “good news” for Nintendo Switch 2 owners in the future.

Square Enix has already been an early supporter of the Nintendo Switch 2 platform, bringing games like Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D, Octopath Traveler 0, Final Fantasy Tactics and Final Fantasy 7 Remake to the platform all in the first year.

Adding another platform to the support list for Final Fantasy 14 would help the MMO reach an even broader audience of players. However, we shouldn't expect any announcements in the immediate future. Square Enix already has a lot of other Switch 2 games in the pipeline for the months ahead.

KitGuru Says: My only concern would be how well the Switch 2 could handle some of the more intense content, like raids, where frame rates can take some big hits.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
