Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory is a spin-off based on the Kingdom Hearts series that features rhythm-based gameplay including boss battles. The gameplay footage showed rhythm-based inputs with familiar characters returning from the previous games.
ESRB has also shared a summary of the game. They have cited “Fantasy Violence” and “Mild Language” in the rating description.
This is a rhythm-based game in which players help characters battle through worlds from the Kingdom Hearts series. On a scrolling track, players time button presses with musical queues in order to attack, dodge, and use magic against fantasy enemies. Animated sequences sometimes depict characters using keyblades to attack enemies in one-on-one combat; a handful of sequences involve characters being impaled—depicted off-screen or obscured by bright flashes of light. One song title contains the word “damned.”
Square Enix has yet to announce a release date for the game but it has been listed with a 2020 release window. If ESRB has rated the game, it could point towards the game releasing soon. It did look finished based on the first gameplay trailer.
