A King's Tale: Final Fantasy XV is a 2D, side-scrolling brawler set 30 years before the events of Final Fantasy XV. It was revealed during the Square Enix Active Time Report at E3 2016, and it released alongside its companion game on November 29, 2016 as a pre-order bonus exclusive to GameStop and EBgames in North America, GAME in the United Kingdom, and Saraiva in Brazil. The game was later released as a free download for all on March 1, 2017
Set in a fictitious 30 years before FINAL FANTASY XV, this game features retro-style inspired graphics centered around a fast-paced combat system with influences from modern gaming. The in-depth combat system blends intense attacks, devastating magic, mighty summons and unique companion attacks into a singular gaming experience through three diverse locations in the world of FINAL FANTASY XV.

Restless before bed, young Noctis asks his father, King Regis, to tell a fairy tale full of fantasy and adventure instead of just another generic bedtime story. Regis begins with a peaceful day being disrupted when monsters raid the royal capital, Insomnia. Young Regis, joined by Weskham, starts his adventure from the royal capital. Eventually they are joined by friends Cid and Clarus, where they travel to the plains of Duscae only to discover a mysterious cave where their enemy resides

This will be amazing, but I'm not sure how likely I am to play this 100+ hour beast again. It's still my favorite Final Fantasy battle system.

Noooo, don’t make me buy these two games again. I own both the PS3, PS4 and Vita versions of X/X-2 and the PS4 collectors edition of XII. But a Switch version sounds better than all of those.

I was going to make a snarky comment on this, but upon further research I discovered that I clearly missed something here. When FFIX launched 3 years ago on mobile and next-gen platforms, it was $16. And I bought it at $16. However, apparently that was just a launch promotion, and a month or so after launch the price rose to its ‘standard’ price of $21. I just always assumed it stayed at $16 and they were just simply charging a Switch premium. But no, that’s the price everywhere. Which is insane when you consider you can buy the PSN Classic version for $10 or an actual physical copy of it for $15.

Square Enix have added always online DRM to Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster for Steam 3 years after it's release.
