Obviously, it’s a total mystery what Tabata could be talking about here. The Golden Snitch? The Worst Witch? Maury Povich? Oh, no, wait, he said console. Can’t imagine which.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean that Final Fantasy XV as we know it is coming to Switch. It’s clear that Square Enix sees FFXV as a franchise in and of itself (Tabata’s interpreter even said “franchise”), so the Final Fantasy XV content that comes to Switch could be a spinoff, or something akin to the mobile Pocket Edition, or maybe just a time attack mode that’s only Chapter 13.

But today’s comments, strangely phrased as they may be, make it crystal clear that something is happening with FFXV and Switch. That’s for sure.
