Kingdom Hearts Collection

Kingdom Hearts Collection [I-III] is out now on PS5, Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, and topped the Japanese software chart for October 5 to 11 with its Switch 2 version. The package bundles HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX, HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind for 11,000 yen, with the three parts also sold separately.

Synthesized from 9 Yomimono stories · updated 2d ago

The collection was confirmed at the June 9 Nintendo Direct as native Switch 2 ports of the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX, HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind packages, alongside a bundle of all three. At the same time Square Enix stopped selling the Switch cloud versions, said owners can carry save data to the new ports at a discounted price, and set the cloud service's end for June 9, 2027. The same Direct attached Kingdom Hearts IV to Switch 2 as well as PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Marketing ran through world tours rather than the trilogy's plot. Square Enix put out six YouTube Shorts on September 14 aimed at people who had never played the series, and a second set on September 25 covering Hollow Bastion, Olympus, Neverland, Dwarf Woodlands, Country of the Musketeers, and Agrabah. The collection opened on October 8, 2026 at 11,000 yen with the three titles sold separately at 5,280 yen, 4,180 yen, and 5,280 yen. Physical copies for Switch 2 and PS5 need an internet connection and an additional download.

Week-one data put the Switch 2 version at No. 1 in Famitsu's October 5 to 11 chart with 23,411 copies and the PS5 version at fifth with 6,261. The set arrived with Kingdom Hearts IV still undated since a trailer showed Sora in Quadratum, though the collection's review coverage treated Kingdom Hearts III and its Disney and Pixar worlds as the main draw for readers preparing for that game.
