Square Enix announced today that sometime in 2019, Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII Remastered will be sold as a bundle in a physical format that supports both English and Japanese language options.

Here’s an overview of each of the game, via Nintendo:
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VII, the timeless classic loved by a legion of fans, is now available with a number of helpful extra features! Experience an epic adventure beyond imagination, culminating in the final battle to decide the fate of the planet.
The world has fallen under the dominion of the Shinra Electric Power Company, a sinister corporation that has monopolized the planet’s very life force as Mako energy.
In the urban megalopolis of Midgar, an anti-Shinra rebel group calling themselves Avalanche have stepped up their campaign of resistance.
