Rogue Games wrote:Get ready for a rad and unexpected journey through the world of Sanrio in a music rhythm game like nothing you’ve experienced before.

Join Hello Kitty and two friends on a delightful music tour as they spread happiness to everyone. Along the way they’ll discover new friends to join their musical parades. However, jealous of Hello Kitty’s growing fanbase, Kurami will stop at nothing to end the music, dispatching goons and laying traps to stop the momentum.

It’s up to you to dance, dance, dance to the beat, avoid traps, use each character’s unique abilities, collect coins and upgrades, complete challenges, and bring joy to the world around you! With a robust soundtrack filled with over 40 amazing pop hits, you’ll be dancing to the music long after you put the controllers down.

Key Features

> 23 different levels to dance through with five different endings.
> Over 40 pop hits with 20 brand-new Nintendo Switch tracks.
> Play with 11 iconic Hello Kitty characters.
> Earn happiness points and collect character cards to level up and upgrade unique abilities.
> Complete challenges for extra rewards.
> Customize outfits with hats, sunglasses, and more!

60fps too.

...this has arrived from outta nowhere ...and it looks to be top fun, with good presentation and great music! Check out the two vids to see the action!

The game released on mobile a few months back but now it has launched on Switch with additional content. The odd thing is that yesterday the developer tweeted that the game launch had been delayed... but it's out now on the eShop (UK). I *might* get it!

It's incred to see some of you guys really feeling the game... maybe it could be a surprise smash hit here on GR :toot:

More excited for this than Tears of the Kingdom tbh.

Oh, yeah, lock n' load with the Hello Kitty crew... here we go!

^^^ Just released footage of Switch gameplay. It legit looks to be pretty good and - dare I say it - dang fierce, too!

I remember playing Hello Kitty Roller Rescue years back, and that was a surprisingly great game too.

Whoop, whoop! It's clear that we have a lot of closet Kitty fans here in GR! Just where is this thread gonna take us?

I’m in!

As a rhythm game aficionado, plastic, it could be something you'd enjoy :-)

I was going to take the piss but after just spending 25 minutes of my evening watching the first episode of an anime about the employees of a ~~lesbian~~ 'sisterly love' schoolgirl themed cafe :oops:

, I don't think I have the right.

I like Rhythm games but this, this looks poor!

. I'm guessing that - in line with the publisher's post - the early release was a mistake.

But.. I'm playing it and enjoying it! Right now, it must be one of the rarest games on Switch!

Sanrio World Smash Ball on Super Famicom is a great game.

I've done some investigative journalism by reaching out to the publisher about the launch delay. I'll report back if I get any news!

I bet there are some errors in it that they want to remove and straighten out the code then they will relaunch it...

Still if you want to make cash you could offer your machine up on ebay for ridiculous money... if for any reason it doesn't release id either do that or look at hacking that switch so I can get the game off it for preservation.

It's already up on some ROM sites. Though it would be fun seeing Jawa mod his switch.
