The World Ends with You: Final Remix

Yesterday, Nintendo announced the western release date for The World Ends with You: Final Remix. The Switch title launches in North America and Europe on October 12.

Following up on the news, retailers like GameStop have updated their listings. Rather than the original $60 price point, The World Ends with You: Final Remix is now listed at $50. Amazon and Best Buy are also showing the same price.

Most Switch games tend to cost $60. The World Ends with You: Final Remix won’t be receiving a massive discount, but it’ll be $10 lower than originally expected.
