FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE on Switch 2: file size, cartridge and performance
FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE is a Square Enix HD-2D RPG released on Switch 2 on October 22, 2026, at $49.99. The US eShop lists an 11.9 GB download, down from the 12.7 GB shown before launch. The physical edition is a Game-Key Card, so the cartridge only holds a key and the game itself downloads. There is also a separate Switch 1 version, but no upgrade path between the two. In RPG Site's demo tests the Switch 2 version targets 60 FPS and loads faster, while the Switch 1 version targets 30 FPS with drops, even when played on a Switch 2. The eShop lists five languages, including Spanish.
