If you’re a Kingdom Hearts fan and looking for a way to bust out some sweet dance moves, then this should be good news for you. Kingdom Hearts is all set to release a new rhythm-action game which features music from this series. This one is titled Melody of Memory, and will be released sometime this year for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.
Melody of Memory offers rhythm-action gameplay that is truly fast-paced. Players need to travel, as well as battle, their way through various Disney worlds while making sure to stay on the beat of classic songs from the franchise. This should also allow players the chance to revisit many of the franchise’s greatest moments.
In the game, players take the role of many of their favorite characters from the different Kingdom Hearts games. Additionally, at certain points in the game, Disney characters are going to appear as guest members and help out players.
In a post, Square Enix said that players can expect to experience at least 140 music tracks that were included across the whole Kingdom Hearts saga. There’s also going to be a selection of Disney tracks.
There’s no question that there’s a lot of melodic memories that players can experience, even in single player mode. For those who want to take it to the next level, Melody of Memory has an online feature along with a multiplayer mode.
Other new things arriving
For those who want to listen to more Kingdom Hearts music, the Kingdom Hearts III soundtrack is set to be released this fall.
It’s not just music, though, as the mobile game Kingdom Hearts Union X Dark Road released a free update early this week. The update offers a brand-new story which explores the history of Xehanort.
Stay Home Campaign
During the early days of the pandemic, Square Enix launched its Stay Home & Play initiative. The goal of this initiative was to reward and support gamers for practicing social distancing and being responsible. The initiative is also aimed at raising money for food banks along with other charities around the world. Since then, the campaign has managed to raise at least $2.4 million.
