Square Enix has put FINAL FANTASY XIV: Evercold on the calendar for January 2027 and confirmed PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, Windows, Mac, and Steam. The teaser site also locks in a level-cap jump to 110, two new jobs, and broad combat-system changes.
FINAL FANTASY XIV arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 in August 2026. Square Enix says the port gets one month of early access, does not require Nintendo Switch Online, and gives existing multi-platform players a half-price Switch 2 subscription.
Square Enix said on March 21, 2026 that it will integrate Google Gemini into Dragon Quest X and test a conversational companion that can answer questions, speak back to players, and surface destination hints. The beta is recruiting through March 30, 2026 as the company looks for ways to reduce onboarding friction in its long-running online RPG.
