Square Enix will finally be bringing a Kingdom Hearts game to Switch this year, but perhaps not in the way that fans had hoped. Rather than releasing one of the core past titles, we’re instead getting Melody of Memory – a rhythm action spinoff.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered is now available for purchase on the Switch eShop, and Square Enix celebrates the occasion with the all-new special artwork featured above. At $29.99 on the eShop and taking up 4.1GB of space, this Action-RPG is sure to capitalize on the portability of the Switch. While multiplayer is an online-only affair, the addition of cross-play capability will allow players to enjoy the adventure with their friends regardless of platform, and in thirteen additional dungeons to boot. It certainly is a good time to delve back into the world of crystals and miasma.
