Which Version Should You Buy? · Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster
If you own the Switch 1 HD Remaster, do not assume an upgrade path — Square Enix states Switch and Switch 2 versions are separate with incompatible saves. Buy Switch 2 only if you want the new hardware QoL (high-speed, encounter toggle) on the new console.

Which Version Should You Buy?
If you own the Switch 1 HD Remaster, do not assume an upgrade path — Square Enix states Switch and Switch 2 versions are separate with incompatible saves. Buy Switch 2 only if you want the new hardware QoL (high-speed, encounter toggle) on the new console.
New players: start with X, then X-2. Use high-speed for grind segments and turn encounters off when exploring for chests.
Key tips
- No save transfer from Switch.
- Use high-speed for grinding.
- Toggle encounters while treasure hunting.
