For much of the 21st century, the *Final Fantasy* series was a PlayStation exclusive. However, with a nearly 40-year history and a need to reach new generations of gamers (not to mention boost sales!), Square Enix, like many publishers, has embraced multiplatform releases. Beyond PC ports, they've also brought a significant number of remasters and special editions to Nintendo's handheld consoles.
This isn't entirely new territory. The *Final Fantasy* and Nintendo relationship goes back to the series' debut on the Famicom in 1987. In fact, the first six mainline entries launched on Nintendo platforms before Square Enix shifted primarily to PlayStation with *Final Fantasy VII*.
With *Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth*'s PC release and a noteworthy *Magic: The Gathering* expansion bringing *Final Fantasy* back into the spotlight in 2025, many are eager to explore the series. Below is a complete list of *Final Fantasy* games available on the Nintendo Switch, perfect for both newcomers and veterans.
