Final Fantasy VII Rebirth launches June 3

Square Enix has set Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for release on Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox platforms this week, with its official regional announcement naming June 3, 2026 as the date. The company’s Asia news portal said in February that the game would arrive on Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC with Xbox Play Anywhere and Xbox Cloud Gaming support on that date. Nintendo Everything on June 1 then posted the game’s Switch 2 launch trailer ahead of release. The release expands the second entry in Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy beyond the platforms where it first appeared. Square Enix’s main Rebirth page now says the game is available on PlayStation 5 and PC and available to pre-order on Xbox and Nintendo Switch 2. The company’s official store pages list the Switch 2 version at a starting price of $49.99 in North America and Europe. (square-enix.com) ### Which date is actually attached to the new launch? Square Enix’s February 6 announcement is the clearest official date reference: June 3, 2026. That post said Rebirth was “coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC” on that date. Nintendo Everything’s earlier February 5 report on the Nintendo Direct reveal also said the game was “dropping on June 3, 2026.” (square-enix.com) Xbox Wire introduced a wrinkle last week. Microsoft’s “Next Week on Xbox” post for games releasing June 1 to 5 listed Final Fantasy VII Rebirth as arriving on June 2. Xbox’s Final Fantasy tag page separately links to a January 22 post titled “Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Comes to Xbox June 3 – Pre-Order Now,” indicating Microsoft has used both dates in its own materials. (square-enix.com) ### What platforms are included in this rollout? Square Enix named Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC in its February announcement. The company also said the Xbox versions would support Xbox Play Anywhere and Xbox Cloud Gaming. Xbox Wire’s weekly schedule described the title as optimized for Xbox Series X|S and marked it as Xbox Play Anywhere. (news.xbox.com) Square Enix’s main product page still frames the game as part of a three-title remake project. The page says Rebirth is the second installment and describes it as a standalone entry following the group’s escape from Midgar. ### What did Nintendo Everything post this week? Nintendo Everything published a June 1 item carrying Square Enix’s Nintendo Switch 2 launch trailer. (square-enix.com) The post said Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth “comes to Nintendo Switch 2 on June 3, 2026” and embedded the trailer labeled for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S versions. (square-enix.com) Nintendo Everything’s news archive also said Square Enix had prepared the trailer “ahead of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s launch on Nintendo Switch 2 this week.” That followed the site’s February report that first tied the Switch 2 version to the June 3 date after a Nintendo Direct presentation. ### How is Square Enix selling the new versions? (nintendoeverything.com) Square Enix’s store pages show the Switch 2 edition as a pre-order and list a starting price of $49.99. The North American store page marks the product as a digital license and says digital content items may be sold separately later. (nintendoeverything.com) The official franchise store page also lists Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from $49.99 alongside other Final Fantasy VII releases. Square Enix’s broader site continues to direct buyers to the Rebirth product page for platform options and purchase details. ### What comes next over the next 24 hours? (na.store.square-enix-games.com) June 3, 2026 is the date Square Enix named for Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC in its official announcement. Nintendo Everything’s launch-trailer post and Square Enix’s store pages indicate the game is scheduled to go live as this week’s rollout begins. (square-enix.com) (na.store.square-enix-games.com)
