Europe: Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster a download code | Nintendo Switch News | NintendoReporters

 [![Europe: Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster a download code](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/europe-final-fantasy-x-2-hd-remaster-a-download-code.jpg "Europe: Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster a download code")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/europe-final-fantasy-x-2-hd-remaster-a-download-code.jpg)Some unfortunate news for European fans looking to purchase the retail release of Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster on Nintendo Switch.

## [](#one-physical-one-download)One physical one download

According to the Square Enix EU store, it seems like the game’s European release will be split into two parts. While Final Fantasy X HD Remaster will be a physical game cartridge, Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster will only be a one-use download code.

So far, the American Square Enix store does not reflect this same information – so it’s not clear if the game will be sold this way worldwide.

Regardless, this method of releasing half the bundle on a download code will definitely upset many collectors. It means that European owners might lose access to Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster in the future, when the Nintendo Switch eShop finally shuts down.

Guess we will be importing this again.
