If you needed a reason to get yet another copy of Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth, Nintendo just gave one by shipping an exclusive MTG card as a Switch 2 in-box bonus.

Much like last year (where Nintendo offered a free MTG Final Fantasy booster pack with FF7 Remake), physical copies of Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth on Switch 2 will include a limited Magic: The Gathering Zack Fair card. While its stats are identical to previous versions, fans of the best card games may be interested to know it features original art by JRPG legend Tetsuya Nomura.

In terms of mechanics, Crisis Core hero Zack Fair is the same as ever; he enters with a +1/+1 token, and in an appropriate twist, can be sacrificed to make your target indestructible. However, it's Nomura's involvement that will likely turn heads. Nomura has spent decades working for Square Enix with multiple hits to his name (including Kingdom Hearts), but he's often associated with the Final Fantasy series... and FF7 in particular. Alongside being the lead character designer for that game in 1997, he directed both Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. That makes this quite the collectible.

It's unclear exactly when pre-orders for the Switch 2 copy of the game will be going live, but it'll launch on June 3, 2026. Until then, I'd recommend keeping an eye out on Amazon and the Nintendo Store. Just remember, the card will only be available in a physical copy of the game, so buying digital isn't gonna cut it.

This wasn't the only reveal to come out of the latest Nintendo Direct, of course; the first Resident Evil amiibo are here, available this summer. Square Enix also revealed a $230 The Adventures of Elliot Collector's Edition, so I can only assume the JRPG's sterling Switch 2 demo did its job.

I've been writing about games in one form or another since 2012, but these days you'll find me managing GamesRadar+'s tabletop gaming and toy coverage (I spend my time here handling everything from board game reviews to the latest Lego news). I've also been obsessed with Warhammer since the 1990s, and love nothing more than running tabletop RPGs like D&D as a Dungeon Master.
