No, Final Fatasy XV Will Not Be Coming To Switch
Game director Hajime Tabata confirmed that there are "no plans" for Final Fantasy XV to be ported to the Nintendo Switch.
"There are no plans, it wouldn't run…" Tabata told DualShockers when asked if there's a possibility that Final Fantasy XV would release for Nintendo Switch. When pressed further, Tabata conceded that it "might run" but that they hadn't "conducted the proper tests on whether it would run properly on switch or not."
Tabata also said that the team was interested in the Switch but again reiterated that they had no plans for a Switch version of the latest Final Fantasy title, which is somewhat sad considering Square Enix has quite a few titles getting the Switch treatment. I Am Setsuna will be available on launch day, a few of the Dragon Quest games have been announced, and a new IP called Project Octopath Traveler was teased during the Switch presentation in January.
The trailer for Project Octopath Traveler is below:
