FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH Launches on Switch 2 & Xbox
Square Enix released FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH on Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and the Microsoft Store on Windows on June 3, 2026.
News summary
FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH launched on Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and the Microsoft Store on Windows on June 3, 2026. Square Enix lists Xbox Play Anywhere and Xbox Cloud Gaming support, plus Streamlined Progression assists. The PlayStation 5, Steam and Epic Games Store versions are unaffected.
Update overview
The release adds platforms rather than replacing any. Streamlined Progression is a set of optional assists carried over from FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE INTERGRADE: unlimited HP and MP, unlimited Limit and ATB gauges in battle, 9,999 damage, and easier weapon-ability acquisition. Players who want the original balance can leave them off.
Xbox Play Anywhere matters most to players who move between an Xbox console and a Windows PC, and Xbox Cloud Gaming adds another access route in supported regions. Saves and purchases do not carry between unrelated ecosystems, so check storefront ownership before buying a second copy.
Key details
Square Enix announced the release on February 6, 2026 and opened digital pre-orders with a 20 percent launch discount that ended June 10, 2026. That discount has expired and is no longer available.
