What happened

Kotaku lined up nine RPGs in a deal roundup centered on Switch 2. The piece is by Ethan Gach and lists a sale price and discount percentage for each title. The roundup was published on October 7, 2026 and is presented in the supplied text as a snapshot of current deals, not as a new announcement from Nintendo, Square Enix, Capcom, or Atlus.

According to the roundup, Final Fantasy VII Intergrade costs $25, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth $35, The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales $45, Octopath Traveler 0 $30, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined $38, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster $32, Pokémon Legends Z-A $40, Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection $56, and Persona 3 Reload $30. Kotaku also lists the matching discounts: 38% for Final Fantasy VII Intergrade, 30% for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, 20% for The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, 40% for Octopath Traveler 0, 37% for Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, 20% for Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, 43% for Pokémon Legends Z-A, 20% for Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, and 50% for Persona 3 Reload.

Kotaku calls Persona 3 Reload the best deal of the nine, with 50% off. The site also says the Final Fantasy VII games run “pretty decently” on Switch 2. In the same text, Kotaku refers to The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales and Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection as recent 2026 releases.

Background

The roundup is not a new announcement from Nintendo, Square Enix, Capcom, or Atlus, but a sales overview from Kotaku. The site ties the nine titles to Switch 2 and also mentions several publishers in the same list. The supplied text does not explain whether Kotaku means native Switch 2 releases only, or also cross-gen or other versions that appear in the same store listings.

Kotaku describes The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales as an HD-2D action RPG with old-school influences. Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is described in the text as a “really good turn-based RPG.” These are editorial descriptions from the author, not technical specifications or official product copy.

The prices in the roundup are snapshots from the October 7, 2026 publication. Kotaku does not give an end date for the deals in the supplied text, so it is unclear how long the listed prices will remain valid or whether retailers such as Walmart, Amazon, or Target will still show the same amounts when read later.

The text also includes a reference to “Revelation” next spring, but without further explanation. It is therefore not possible to tell whether Kotaku means a specific game, a codename, or another release. The supplied information also gives no extra context on the availability of the nine titles on Switch 2 beyond Kotaku grouping them in one buying guide.
