Final Fantasy XIV is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 in August, and fans had better start deleting games now, as the file size for Eorzea and beyond will make it one of the biggest on the system and will only grow larger over time.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is technically advanced enough to handle the modern Final Fantasy games, which means titles like Final Fantasy 7 Revelation will launch day-one on the platform. The problem is that recent Square Enix titles tend to have massive file sizes, usually clocking in at over 100 GB, owing to their triple-A quality visuals eating up storage space.
Square Enix announced at Final Fantasy XIV Berlin Fan Festival that the Nintendo Switch 2 version will launch on August 4, 2026. Those who are eager to go on a portable journey to Eorzea will have to start planning their storage space, as Stealth40k has claimed on Twitter/X that the Switch 2 port of Final Fantasy XIV will take up around 117 GB, which is nearly half of what the system can handle.
