Nintendo Switch 2 Could Get Final Fantasy XIV, But Patience Is Key
6/17/2024Nintendo Switch 2 Could Get Final Fantasy XIV, But Patience Is Key
The Nintendo Switch 2, the highly anticipated successor to the popular console, might eventually host one of the most beloved MMORPGs of all time: Final Fantasy XIV. However, fans will need to exercise some patience, as it won’t happen immediately after the system’s launch.
In a recent interview with Easy Allies, Naoki Yoshida, the producer of Final Fantasy XIV, expressed his long-standing dream: to make the game accessible to players across various platforms. While the development team would love to see the game on a Nintendo platform, Yoshida emphasized that it might take time. Drawing a parallel with the Xbox Series X|S version, which materialized years after initial discussions with Microsoft, he cautioned against expecting a swift release for the Nintendo Switch 2.
Third-party support for the upcoming Nintendo console appears promising in its early years. Developers, already accustomed to optimizing for the Xbox Series S, should find it manageable. However, as the Nintendo Switch 2’s specs are expected to be less powerful, sacrifices may be necessary to ensure smooth gameplay.
As of now, the Nintendo Switch 2 remains shrouded in mystery, but more details are anticipated in the coming months. Stay tuned for updates! 🎮✨
