Final Fantasy VIII Remastered

Update: And it's been confirmed! The twin pack will launch in Europe, the Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand later this year and is available to pre-order.


Original Article: Remember that Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII Remastered twin pack physical release announced exclusively for Southeast Asia last year? Well, it's now surfaced on two Greek websites.

Nintendo Life and ResetEra user Geobros noted how these listings could possibly lead to a more official European release. Pre-orders are available now and the game will apparently arrive on 6th November 2020 for around €40.00 (about $47 USD).

That famous Twin Pack of Final Fantasy VII & Final Fantasy VIII Remastered released officially in Asia in 2019 with English content (luckily).

Now it looks like Square Enix will bring that pack in Europe too. I found 2 lists by greek retailers with release date 06 November 2020. I would like to remind that this Greek retailer Console Club had leaked an Assassin's Creed game for Switch before.

FF Twin Pack

Of course, until we hear something more official from Square Enix, there are no guarantees this twin pack is getting a proper release in this region. In fact, as some other lovely Nintendo Life users have pointed out, both these retailers may just be importing copies of the Southeast Asia version - the box art on display certainly looks the same (and there's no PEGI rating).

It's also been mentioned how other retailers within Europe have been importing copies for ages now (thanks, Hinade).

At the very least - Switch fans located in Greece will soon be able to grab this game one way or another. What do you make of these latest listings yourself? Have you added this limited physical release to your own Switch collection? Tell us below.
