Square-Enix shows interest in creating enhanced ports of past titles for Switch

Square-Enix CEO Yosuke Matsuda knows that there are new gamers out there who have never experienced Square-Enix's past catalog of games. He wants to change that by bringing enhanced ports of those games to newer platforms, Switch included.

“One of our other big initiatives is to get as many of our past titles available via digital releases. Among the younger generations of gamers, you’ve got lots of people out there who may have heard of our past titles but have never had an opportunity to play them. So we think that programme of porting and transferring the older titles over to newer platforms, such as the Switch, is very important. So that people get that awareness of our back catalogue. Just straight ports isn’t cutting it, we need to update those and modernise them to make something that works for modern gamers too.”

No specific titles were mentioned, but I guess we can start expecting some classic Square-Enix games to make their way to Switch.
