No longer can someone play both titles and sell the cartridge. What this does is hurt the resale value of the game. This version also includes an English dub with subtitles and isn’t region-locked.

Interestingly, Asian physical versions of the game include both titles on the cartridge. It seems the console views 10-2 as DLC rather than its own game. While this sounds fine, it’s not possible to play the second game without the cartridge for 10 in the system, despite the game being a download. When buying the physical version of this release, the American edition only includes Final Fantasy 10 on the cartridge. Buyers then receive 10-2 via a download code.

At least, that’s the case with the American version of the game. What you may not have heard is that 10-2, available via download code after purchasing 10, is only playable with the cartridge in. As you may have heard, the Final Fantasy 10/10-2 HD Remaster is now on the Nintendo Switch.
