FFXIV lands on Switch 2 with a colossal 117GB install and free trial
TL;DR Summary
Final Fantasy XIV is set to arrive on Nintendo Switch 2 on August 4, with a massive 117.2 GB install and the game’s popular free trial. The Switch 2 version requires its own monthly sub (even on the same account), though players paying for two subs can get a 50% discount on the Switch 2 sub. The announcement came alongside an extended Evercold teaser trailer and other updates, including a new Bastion tank class, a data center revamp for better connectivity, and crossovers with the FF7 Remake and Evangelion, revealed at Fan Festival 2026 in Berlin.
