The series now has a home across PC and all the major consoles, with the most recent game in the series Final Fantasy 15, one of the largest open world RPGs this generation, arriving on Xbox Game Pass last month, as well as long-awaited remake of Final Fantasy 7 releasing on PlayStation 4 earlier this year.
The Switch has been supported by Square since release, with Final Fantasy ports and Dragon Quest games, along with an upcoming game that long time series developer Tetsuya Nomura is working on. The two companies historically worked together regularly, with all the Final Fantasy games releasing on Nintendo consoles throughout the 80s and 90s, only for Square to make a shift over to Sony, with the release of Final Fantasy 6 on the original PlayStation. While neither Nintendo nor Square Enix have yet to confirm that Final Fantasy 9 is getting a physical release later this year, the former have a tendency to not announce releases too far ahead, so it's likely that fans will hear confirmation from the Kyoto-based company in the next couple of weeks, as they finalize the holiday releases for the Nintendo Switch.
