The HD-2D remake of Live A Live for Switch was announced for Switch towards the start of the year, and reviews are now starting to go online with the RPG just a few days out from landing on the console.

Players can also look forward to rearranged versions of the original music written by Kingdom Hearts series and Final Fantasy XV composer Yoko Shimomura.
