Whilst the series has never seen an actual release on PC before, the games have been playable through some innovative emulation. However, the announcement reveals that the bundles and remix titles will be available. While the names of these games can get very chronologically confusing, it’s important to note all games in the series are being represented. For the first time, players will be able to experience previously mobile-only titles like Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, both originally debuting on Nintendo handhelds. The releases also bring over the newest game, Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory, a rhythm game blending the series stories together. The series will collectively drop on March 30th, with each game being priced at $60 and Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix priced at just $50. While the rereleases do not reflect recent prices on Sony’s platform, you can expect future Epic Games Store sales to drive these prices down sooner or later.
