Final Fantasy fans certainly had plenty to be happy about during today's Nintendo Direct presentation, most notably thanks to the fact that Final Fantasy IX stealth-dropped onto Switch immediately after the show. Yep, it's out now.

It only received the briefest of segments in the Direct, but we can confirm that it has appeared on the Switch eShop for £16.99 / $20.99. The game's blurb mentions that players can "experience the adventure once again with characters and pre-rendered movies featuring in high definition, as well as a new booster system with a selection of various modes".

If that wasn't enough for you, it was also revealed that Final Fantasy VII will be launching on 26th March - that's just over a month away. We never thought we'd see this one arrive on a Nintendo platform, but here we are. Lovely stuff.


Will you be grabbing Final Fantasy IX today? Looking forward to VII coming out next month? Let us know in the comments.
