Square Enix brought Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster to the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026, timed to the original game's 25th anniversary. The download version launched on July 23, and the package version followed on August 27. The package includes a special sleeve case bearing the FFX 25th Anniversary Logo artwork, designed by Tetsuya Nomura, and is limited to the memorial year.

The Switch 2 release adds a Game Boost Function, a feature not present in earlier versions of the HD remaster. It lets players adjust game speed, character enhancement, and encounter rates. The remaster bundles Final Fantasy X, which first appeared in 2001, with its direct sequel Final Fantasy X-2 in one package.

Pricing was set at 6,688 yen for the digital edition and 7,480 yen for the physical edition, both including tax. Store-specific pre-order bonuses were offered, including digital wallpapers from the Square Enix e-STORE and stickers from Amazon.co.jp. The commemorative push continues with an exhibition, FINAL FANTASY X MUSEUM -Genkou no Kioku-, running September 12 to 27 at LUMINE ZERO in Shinjuku. Earlier in 2026, the remaster was also discounted 60% on Steam during a weekly sale that ran until June 26.
