Demo Final Fantasy VII Rebirth now available on Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X/S

Square Enix has released a demo for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X/S.

The demo features chapter 1 and 2 of the full game. Chapter 1 is the flashback from five years ago: "the Nibelheim incident". In chapter 2 you can explore the Grasslands region. You can carry your progress to the full game.

This demo is different than the demo that was released before the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PlayStation 5 back in 2024 in which you also play the first chapter, but the other part is the area around Junon.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth was first released on PlayStation 5 on 29 February 2024 and almost a year later on PC on 23 January 2025. The Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox Series X/S version will be released on 3 June 2026.
