Kingdom Hearts is well-known for its lovely array of music, with the trend continuing into the release of Kingdom Hearts 3. The series’ musical quality has become a particular point of agreement among fans that Square Enix not only holds regular concerts of the games’ orchestra, but it has also become the subject of its own upcoming rhythm game called Melody of Memory. Now it appears fans will finally have the sounds of the series in their home as the Kingdom Hears 3 soundtrack has now received an official release date.

As reported by KH Insider, the Kingdom Hearts 3 soundtrack is currently slated for release on November 11th, with a physical version exclusive to Japan and a digital edition set to release worldwide. The 8-disc collection is to feature 160 total songs – including tracks from composer Yoko Shimomura and theme songs by musician Utada Hikaru – from several of the most Kingdom Hearts titles: Kingdom Hearts 3 and the Re:Mind DLC, the 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, as well as the Unchained χ and Union χ mobile titles.

UPDATE: A digital release will be happening worldwide on the same date. More information will be announced in the future. https://t.co/u2NTs9wofg

Fans have been waiting for this new soundtrack collection for months at this point, with the album being slated for a generic “Fall 2020” window back in June. Now that it’s finally on track for November, fans are sure to be hyped for the release, especially as the compilation surprisingly includes much more than just a Kingdom Hearts 3 soundtrack. More information is set to be revealed in the months ahead, but Square Enix has teased a little contest for the time being. Beginning in mid-September, fans will be able to enter into a lottery to win autographs from the game’s composers Yoko Shimomura, Takeharu Ishimoto and Tsuyoshi Sekito.
