Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster Hits Nintendo Switch 2 Next Month With High-Speed Mode, No Random Encounters Toggle, And More

!Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster Nintendo Switch 2 July 23 Release Date Trailer(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/06/09/35f5d971/ffx3.jpg.webp) Square Enix has revealed that Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster(https://www.gameinformer.com/product/final-fantasy-xx-2-hd-remaster) is coming to Nintendo Switch 2. When it hits the console next month on July 23, it will bring with it both classic Final Fantasy adventures alongside brand new Switch 2 features, including a highly requested high-speed mode, a toggle for random encounters, and additional quality of life features. While these features are available on the PC version of this remaster, this is the first time they'll be in a console port. The developer-publisher released a new trailer today for the HD Remaster Switch 2 port, highlighting the full HD characters, monsters, and background visuals present in the HD Remaster, which first launched in the U.S. in 2014. Though fans of these games debate whether the HD character models, in particular, are better (nothing beats the original PS2 game, in my opinion), you can't argue that features like high-speed mode and encounter toggles aren't welcome additions. Check it out in the Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster Nintendo Switch 2 release date trailer below: This HD Remaster also features fully remastered and arranged music, and additional elements from Final Fantasy X/Final Fantasy X-2 International Version are fully recreated here. It's an excellent remaster, all things considered, and if you haven't played these games before, I can't recommend them enough – the Final Fantasy X saga is arguably the best in the entire franchise (plus, if more people play these games, maybe Square Enix will finally make Final Fantasy X-3). Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on July 23.

Sea of Stars' Final Sunset Edition Update And Switch 2 Version Are Out Today

Sea of Stars' Final Sunset Edition Update And Switch 2 Version Are Out Today

!Game Informer News(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/06/08/9ecfec22/sunset-with-logo-4k.jpg.webp) Sabotage Studio is officially releasing its last update for Sea of Stars today. The news dropped in a video uploaded to the company's YouTube channel, which details today's update and outlines some plans for the future. Dubbed "Sunset Edition," the update mainly adds a new animated intro cinematic to the game, both to clarify some later events in the game and to serve as a fitting capstone on the project's development. Additionally,  the description of Sabotage's recent video reads, "We also revisited the balancing for Normal and Hard modes. Splitting the attributes of the Tactician’s Mettle relic into two separate relics (Tactician’s Mettle and Ray of Sunset) enables a 'Normal' experience that demands more grit." Sea of Stars is also launching on GOG.com and Switch 2 today. The Switch 2 version will be a free upgrade for those that have the Switch 1 version and adds GameShare, allowing up to three players to play in local co-op. The video also announces plans to make a collector's edition of Sea of Stars alongside iam8bit, with more details to come at a later date. For now, Sabotage Studio is moving onto its next game, called Project Sparrow. It's been in the works for over a year, but as it's only recently entered full production, Sabotage CEO Thierry Boulanger made it clear that it's not quite ready to share yet. Sea of Stars: Sunset Edition is available today on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, iOS, Android, and PC via Steam (where it's currently 50% off), the Epic Games Store, and GOG. For more on Sea of Stars, check out our review of the game(https://gameinformer.com/review/sea-of-stars/genre-excellence), our impressions of its Throes of the Watchmaker DLC(https://gameinformer.com/dlc-impressions/2025/05/20/sea-of-stars-free-story-dlc-knows-you-havent-played-recently-which-is), our interview with Boulanger about the games impressive success(https://www.gameinformer.com/interview/2025/07/30/sea-of-stars-was-seven-times-more-successful-than-anticipated-and-more-from), or our cover story, first released back in Game Informer issue 354(https://gameinformer.com/magazine-archive/354-the-indie-issue).
