April Is Final Fantasy Month
Last year it was announced that a slew of Final Fantasy games would be making their way to the Nintendo Switch. Two of them are arriving this April! Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster will arrive on April 16. A few weeks later, on April 30, we’ll get Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age.
April is shaping up to be a rather busy month for releases with Mortal Kombat 11, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, and Crystal Crisis arriving all launching on April 23. Plus we have Yoshi’s Crafted World coming out on March 29, so it looks like we’re going to have a very busy stretch of gaming (not that we’re complaining)!
