Reporting from 6 sources: 4Gamer.net, GAME Watch (Impress), ASCII.jp, Denfaminicogamer, and 2 more.
Square Enix announced on June 9 that the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster will release digitally on July 23, 2026, with a physical version following on August 27. Pre-orders opened the same day. The package combines Final Fantasy X, originally released in 2001, and its direct sequel Final Fantasy X-2 in a single HD remaster. The digital edition costs 6,688 yen, and the physical edition costs 7,480 yen, both including tax. The physical version includes a limited-time special sleeve case featuring the FFX 25th Anniversary Logo art, designed by Tetsuya Nomura. The game includes Game Boost Functions that let players adjust game speed, character stats, and encounter rates. Store-specific pre-order bonuses include digital wallpapers from the Square Enix e-STORE and original stickers from Amazon.co.jp. The original Final Fantasy X marked its 25th anniversary on July 19, 2026, and the Switch 2 release coincides with that milestone.
The physical edition's special sleeve case, featuring the "FFX 25th Anniversary Logo" art designed by Tetsuya Nomura, is a limited-time bonus. ASCII.jp notes it may not be included depending on the production period and will end when stock runs out. The logo illustration is credited to Yoshitaka Amano.
ASCII.jp also reports that the combined worldwide shipments and downloads of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 have exceeded 20 million units. The outlet describes the story as following Tidus, a boy facing the great threat "Sin," and summoner Yuna. The Game Boost Functions, which let players adjust game speed, character stats, and encounter rates, are described by multiple sources as allowing players to progress quickly or take their time.
Square Enix has opened a Final Fantasy X 25th Anniversary special page. ASCII.jp reports the page introduces memorial products including the anniversary logo, deformed plushies of Tidus and Yuna, music products like analog records, and a visual art book. The game is rated CERO C (ages 15 and up). The Nintendo Switch 2 version trailer is available on YouTube.
