By This truly cannot be accommodated on a cartridge
Square Enix has recently provided an update concerning the anticipated file size for Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade on the Switch 2.
As we might have anticipated, it’s substantial, everyone. Like, really substantial. Store listings on the eShop already feature some quite ambitious figures, but according to Square Enix, these numbers aren’t actually precise.
As indicated on X, the file size for the Standard Edition will range from 90GB to 95GB. In comparison, the Limited Early Purchase Edition and Limited Early Purchase Digital Deluxe Editions will be between 93.8GB to 99GB.
Yikes! This indicates that the game simply won’t fit on a 64GB cartridge for its physical version, so Square Enix has, like many others, decided on a Game-Key Card release.
It gets us pondering just how immense Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth will be alongside the unnamed third installment. Is it conceivable that these three titles combined may not fit on the Switch 2 without an additional microSD Express Card..?
Needless to say, if you haven’t yet considered acquiring some extra storage, now might be the moment to do so. We believe 2026 is going to be filled with some fairly significant ports, so you’ll want to have as many spare GBs as possible.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is set to release on 22nd January 2026.
Will you have sufficient storage to accommodate Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade? Or will you need to delete a few titles from your Switch 2? Share your thoughts with us.
