New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on February 10, 2022) follows:
Kingdom Hearts is one of the most popular action RPG game series. Developed and published by Square Enix, the games are a crossover between various Disney properties and are set in a fictional universe.
Some time ago, the official Kingdom Hearts Twitter account announced that all games in the series will be coming to the Nintendo Switch as cloud versions and will be released on February 10 this year.
The developers will be bringing four games that can be purchased individually or in a bundle called Integrum Masterpiece and are priced at $89.99.
The bundle includes Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind (DLC).
But according to recent reports from Nintendo Switch players who bought Kingdom Hearts, it looks like many are unable to play the game since it is crashing on the title screen.
Players are seemingly frustrated because they paid a premium and are unable to play the game right after it was launched. You can see in the image below what the error message looks like for some of those affected by the issue.
As it turns out, Kingdom Hearts developers have started rolling out the Day 1 patch which might potentially address the issue.
But we are unsure since they haven’t said anything about the Kingdom Hearts crashing issue on the Nintendo Switch.
Rest assured, we will be keeping an eye out on the matter and update this space when the developers fix the problem so stay tuned for more information.
