Final Fantasy 7 Revelation director Naoki Hamaguchi has acknowledged growing concerns about open world fatigue while confirming the trilogy's final chapter will feature a larger world than Rebirth. Square Enix plans to launch the action RPG on PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in spring 2027.
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced garners mixed reviews, praised for its visual improvements and new content but criticized for altering core elements. Despite its Metacritic score of 84 and OpenCritic score of 87, critics question the necessity of another remake.

Square Enix hints at the possibility of Final Fantasy 15 coming to the Nintendo Switch 2, stating it's "not entirely impossible" despite hardware constraints.

As excitement builds for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, fans are revisiting the series, pushing Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth to over 10,000 and 6,751 concurrent players on Steam, respectively, after a significant discount. This surge indicates the effective marketing of the upcoming title. The trilogy's conclusion promises an open world, refined combat, and a climactic finale against Sephiroth.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth outsold its predecessor, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, on the Nintendo Switch 2 in Japan, with 30,657 physical units sold in its debut week, exceeding Remake's 23,428. This success, estimated to reach ~45,000 units including digital sales, bodes well for Square Enix's multiplatform strategy. The game's performance is crucial ahead of Final Fantasy 7 Revelation's Spring 2027 launch.
Square Enix has removed the demos for Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 Cloud Version from the US and Japan Nintendo eShop listings, sparking renewed rumors of a native port for the more powerful Switch 2 console.

Fans and observers speculate this could pave the way for a proper, non-cloud release, given the Switch 2's enhanced capabilities.
