Square Enix accidentally revealed its surprises for The World Ends With You today.

A listing taken by Japanese blogs reveals that an iOS port is in the works. This will have arranged tracks from Kingdom Hearts 3D.

Also planned is a brand new soundtrack that will be available on October 1 for 1,890 yen. Square Enix will be including music from the iOS version, tracks from Kingdom Hearts 3D, and brand new pieces.

It’s not entirely clear if there are any additional announcements to be made, but I’d say there is now a much smaller chance of a sequel.
