Players can purchase it via the Nintendo eShop for $49.99 (USD), with a 30% launch discount ($34.99 USD) applied until September 24th, 2026. There is no upgrade path between the Nintendo Switch 1 and Nintendo Switch 2 versions, and save data is also incompatible between the two versions.

The remaster was originally released in December 2022 and improves several key features of the original Crisis Core (2007) while leaving its story untouched. It sports full HD remastered graphics with redone character models and backgrounds, a rebalanced battle system, full voice-over options in both Japanese and English, and a newly arranged soundtrack from composer Takeharu Ishimoto. For a brief look at its story, check out an official synopsis below:

In the mako-powered metropolis of Midgar stands the headquarters of Shinra, a powerful company with a formidable private army. Zack Fair is a promising young operative in the Shinra military’s elite unit, SOLDIER. Together with his mentor, SOLDIER 1st Class Angeal, and the SOLDIER hero Sephiroth, Zack begins an investigation into the recent mass disappearance of SOLDIER operatives.
