When Square Enix announced Visions of Mana at the end of last year, some were surprised that a Switch version was nowhere to be seen. For one thing, the series itself started out on Nintendo platforms. We’ve also seen Collection of Mana as a Switch exclusive while Trials of Mana came out a few years ago as well.

When starting up the rhythm game, it’ll attempt to connect to Square Enix’s servers. However, it gets stuck in an endless loop and won’t progress to the main menu. Square Enix seems to not have accounted for leap day and that’s impacting the code in some manner.

At one point, Takahashi addressed a player survey with a specific topic about the administrator of Origin. This led him to mention that while fans may have some questions and may want to see certain things such as what happens after the end of the game, he’s asking them to wait for now and answers could follow in the future through additional titles.
