Nintendo eShop Square Enix Sale Headlines July 10 Weekend Console Deals

Nintendo’s eShop is running a fresh round of discounts on Square Enix’s biggest RPGs this weekend, even though the platform’s dedicated Summer Sale has officially wrapped up. As reported by Shacknews on July 10, Switch 2 owners can pick up Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined and several other recent Square Enix ports at reduced prices, while PlayStation’s July Savings promotion and a handful of Xbox Game Pass discounts round out this weekend’s console deals.

For anyone who skipped Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s original Switch 2 release or held off on Square Enix’s HD-2D remake wave, this is one of the more meaningful discount windows of the month. The timing also lines up with a broader industry moment for Switch 2 as its Square Enix back catalogue continues to expand well beyond launch-window ports.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Dragon Quest Lead the Nintendo eShop Sale

According to Shacknews, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on Switch 2 is discounted 40 percent to $29.99, while Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined is down 30 percent to $41.99. Both titles arrived on Nintendo’s newer hardware as part of Square Enix’s push to bring its heavier RPGs to a console previously seen as unable to handle them, making this sale a genuine test of how much price sensitivity remains among Switch 2 owners weighing up a second purchase of familiar franchises.

The same report lists Dragon Quest 1+2 HD-2D Remake at 35 percent off for $38.99, Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster at 30 percent off for $27.99, and Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles at 40 percent off for $29.99. Together these five Switch 2 discounts effectively cover Square Enix’s entire recent remaster and remake slate on Nintendo’s platform in one sitting, which is unusual for a publisher that typically staggers its sales across separate promotional windows.

Elsewhere on the eShop, Shacknews notes that Thunderful’s publisher sale is still running, with SteamWorld Dig, SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech and Cake Bash all cut by 80 percent, plus deeper discounts on Planet of Lana, Islanders and PHOGS!. Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition and Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector also appear among the Switch 2-specific discounts, alongside Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection and Portal Companion Collection on original Switch hardware.

PlayStation’s July Savings Sale Discounts Ghost of Tsushima and Horizon Forbidden West

Sony’s ongoing July Savings promotion remains the biggest sale of the weekend by volume. Shacknews reports Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut at 58 percent off for $29.39, Horizon Forbidden West at 40 percent off for $29.99, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Vault Edition at 40 percent off for $59.99.

Also discounted are Diablo 4 at 40 percent off for $29.99, Gears of War Reloaded at 50 percent off for $19.99, and Tekken 8 cut by 40 percent to $23.99. Deeper cuts land on live-service and multiplayer titles, with Warhammer 40K: Darktide down 75 percent to $9.99 and The Outlast Trials reduced 70 percent to $11.99, both of which suit players wanting to try newer co-op experiences without committing to full price.

PlayStation Plus subscribers get an extra layer of savings on top of the public sale. According to Shacknews, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, For the King 2 and CrossCode are currently free for PS Plus members as part of the service’s monthly lineup, separate from the discounted titles available to all PlayStation users.

Xbox Game Pass Discounts Cover ARC Raiders and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Xbox’s weekend offerings are smaller in number but still notable. Shacknews reports ARC Raiders at 25 percent off for $29.99 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 at 60 percent off for $27.99, both solid options for players who missed either game’s initial release window.

Deep Rock Galactic is down 70 percent to $8.99, MLB The Show 26 is cut in half to $34.99, and Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection is 35 percent off at $32.49. For subscribers, the Xbox Game Pass Deals and Discounts tier adds further reductions on Expeditions: A MudRunner Game Year 1 Edition, the Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania Bundle, and Atomic Heart Ultimate Edition, though those specific savings require an active Game Pass Core or Ultimate membership.

What Australian and New Zealand Shoppers Should Check Before Buying

All the figures reported by Shacknews are listed in US dollars, reflecting the American storefronts for PlayStation, Xbox and the Nintendo eShop. Shoppers browsing from Australia or New Zealand should confirm local pricing directly on their region’s PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store or Nintendo eShop, since regional sales don’t always run on identical schedules or match US discount percentages exactly.

That’s particularly relevant for the Square Enix Switch 2 titles, given how recently some of them launched locally at full retail price. With Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined both discounted stateside, it’s worth a quick check of the AU and NZ eShop listings before assuming the same cuts have landed regionally.
