If you’re a huge Final Fantasy 7 fan, then the wait to play the Remake, if you haven’t got a PS5 or PC, must have felt torturous. The formerly PS4 exclusive (yes, really) launched all the way back in 2020, but fans on Xbox and Switch have had to wait. Thankfully, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, with its additional Intergrade content, will come to Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 on January 22, 2026.
Here’s what’s included in each edition.
Physical Standard Edition for Switch 2
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade

Includes Magic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy Play Booster (contains 15 random cards).
Nintendo fans can buy a Physical version of the game, but it will sadly be a game-key card because it’s too massive to fit on a standard cartridge (the game weighs in at 90GB). However, the physical edition includes a ton of cool bonus items, the coolest of which has to be a Play Booster of the Magic: The Gathering Final Fantasy set, which contains 15 cards. Here are the full contents of the physical edition:
Physical Items
- Magic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy Play Booster Pack
- Reversible cover
Digital Items
- Weapon: Cacstar
- Summan Materias: Carbuncle, Chocobo Chick, Cactuar
- Accessories: Superstar Belt, Seraphic Earrings, Mako Crystal
- Armors: Midgar Bangle, Corneo Armlet, Shinra Bangle
Digital Editions
Digital Standard Edition
The Digital version includes much the same as its physical counterpart, but there’s an added bonus of receiving a copy of the original Final Fantasy 7 when you preorder before 31 January 2026.
That should help you appreciate the changes made in the newer version, and give you an introduction to some of gaming’s most iconic characters.
Digital Deluxe Edition
Also available on both consoles and the Xbox Store on PC, the Digital Deluxe version of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade includes a digital artbook and mini soundtrack, as well as the aforementioned items from both the Physical Standard and Digital Standard editions.
It’s not available to preorder for Switch 2 yet.
What’s In The Intergrade Content?
Intergrade is the enhanced version of the PS4 original release of Final Fantasy 7. That game included the 1997’s original Midgar section, turning it into a 3D action-RPG, while Intergrade, added as DLC later, adds two new chapters.
These star Yuffie Kisaragi, and make use of her abilities and combat skills to expand the events of the base game.
New to the Switch 2 and Xbox versions are a new Streamlined Progression mode which is intended to help players push through the story with minimal friction. It includes settings like having your HP always full, endless MP or Limit Gauges, and more.
“I feel that the way people enjoy content has become more flexible these days, as we see with video streaming platforms, and that people also want the same thing from games, with options to tailor the experience based on the time they have and their levels of interest,” the game’s director Naoki Hamaguchi explains.
“I have also had personal experiences where I wanted to play something with the limited time I have but gave up because of the time it takes to level up characters or traverse the game.”
“That’s exactly why I think that the Streamlined Progression feature is very effective – to give players smooth access to the story.”
